I will be happy to assist you in configuring ppp for your system. RedHat 5.2 comes with ppp support as a kernel module out of the box. All you really need to do is edit a few files. The first thing, though before you start editing is to determine the type of login your provider uses. For instance, is it PAP, CHAP, or is there an interactive login process where you wait for a prompt before sending your ID and password. Hmmm... now I'm going off without even seeing what you want to ask. Why don't you post a message explaining what you need and I'll help you get ppp going. Roger C. Scudder Jr. Philadelphia, PA, US rscudder@usa.net I'd rather be running Linux! -- To unsubscribe, send a message with the word 'unsubscribe' in the subject or body of your message to plug-request@lists.nothinbut.net
