Do you have a NIC installed already? If no, you need one. Connecting via myDSL is easy, you will need to install rp-pppoe. I think red hat 7.2 has it in one of it's CD's. Once installed just run adsl-setup and answer the questions. Basically: ETH='eth0' DEMAND=no DNSTYPE=SERVER Once finnished just run adsl-start to connect. Also read /usr/share/doc/rp-pppoe-<version>/README & HOW-TO-CONNECT The firewall that comes with rp-pppoe is ipchains based; if RH 7.2 uses iptables, I suggest you get firestarter at http://firestarter.sourceforge.net or use whatever RH7.2 has. Look around in your CD's maybe firestarter is there.
