help needed for dial-in server

[Matthew Carpenter]

It looks like the PC is getting DNS configured correctly here.  If it
can't see the DNS and the DNS server is on your dialup server, you have
either an issue with IPCHAINS/IPTABLES or your DNS Server is
misconfigured.  Also, if you do not set a DNS Suffix, each lookup has to
be fully qualified (instead of "myrtle" you have to type "myrtle.mydomain"
or whatever)
