Hi thanks for all the tips. I'm happy to report that I got my Linux box on
the internet. The problem was that I used a precompiled Mandrake kernel
which was not compiled with ppp support. So, it was just a matter of
installing the appropriate modules. I figured this out when I started kppp
from the command line hoping to get some error messages. Anyway, thanks
again,
John
