Sorry I took a while to reply to all those who had got back to me about
my query.
My network is up and running now. As it turned out, it was a simple
matter of getting my laptop ping the DSL modem before trying to connect
to the outside world. No manual configuration was required. I am fairly
new to Linux, so I guess I've learnt a lesson there.
As far as my initial email being sent three times in a row. I do
apologise for the incident. I didn't do it on purpose though. I was
under the impression that I would receive a copy of that email straight
after sending it off. I thought that's what happened when I new post was
sent. It didn't arrive, so I thought I'd try sending it again. Thought
I'd mention about that, as I realise that some people were a bit upset
by that.
Thanks once again for all your help.
Alexander Kapshuk.
