I just installed LinuxPPC on my Star Max 3000 160 603e, and when trying
to run Netscape I keep getting no DNS entry messages. My ppp is
configured right, I've checked it 3 times.Help is appreciated. Also is
there a later version of Netscape for LinuxPPC avaliable for download?

Take a look at the file /etc/resolv.conf I was having this problem until
I realized that the pppd was failing to properly write the addresses
of the configured nameservers to this file. Instead of
nameserver 207.217.X.Y
nameserver 207.217.P.Q

I was seeing
nameserver (^(&^.)&)(.X.Y #kppp temporary entry
nameserver (*&).^%*$.P.Q

Put the as many nameserver lines in this file as you have nameservers and
you should have more success.
