Hey! Did you hear what Loki was saying on Mar 18 ?

L> it for the dialup Internet access via my Internet provider though PPP
L> 
L> ...unfortunately I haven't succeed :(
L> 
L> The main problem: I've read all the HOW-TOs on this topic, but still
L> can't understand, what to do if I don't have a fixed IP - it is assigned
L> automatically upon each connection.

        Yeah, this had me stumped for a while as well.  Don't forget about
the man(ual) pages as well the HOWTOs.  Type "man pppd" (without the "")
and have a read of that.  Take particular notice of "ipcp-accept-local"
and "ipcp-accept-remote".
 
L> I've also tried using an EzPPP prog, but it's written in its
L> documentation, that there're problems with Netscape Navigator - and
L> this is the application I was going to use (maybe someone can advise
L> something else, worth using ? coz my favorite browser Opera

        I don't know anything of "EzPPP", but I'd check the date of the
documentation (things can change rather rapidly in the Linux world).  I'm
using Netscape Communicator 4.51 and don't have any problems with it.

L> So, could someone, please, just shortly describe, what and where
L> should I write/add/change to configure the PPP and dialup ?

        Seeing as though you are running RedHat you should probably follow
EnTROpy's advice in the email he sent you and use it's "automagic
configurator".  I can't comment either way on this because I run Slackware
and wrote my own login scripts from scratch.
 
Good luck with it!
Have A Great Day!!
