   Debian-stable:vpnc and pptp

   Hi!   
      
   I'm unsuccessfully trying to get vpnc working on my Debian-stable machine.   
   Normally I'm connecting to my provider by using pptp. I have been able   
   to establish a tunnel to my VPN host (i.e. I can login and tun0 shows up,   
   if I type "ifconfig"). The problem is, that I can not ping any host (e.g.   
   www.google.com), in other words, http does not work. I have tried to   
   change the default route ("route del default; route add default tun0") as   
   well as changing the DNS-servers (to the one of my VPN network). Without   
   success. Any suggestions?   
   In this spirit   
   With thanks for your efforts   
   Yours Gernot   
   PS: I am not a real network expert, so please forgive "my simple   
   formulation".
