I have @Home & had to call them for the settings (They will tell you that
they do not provide support for Linux, but they will give you alot of
help.). I could not get Linux to recognize my ISA Ethernet card, so I
bought a PCI card. It took a while to get the settings to work right, but
with the help of @Home's Techies I finally got it right. One piece of
advice... if you are going to use Netscape for E-mail, you will need the
full name of your mail server instead of just  using "mail" as you would
under Win98. (Mine is "mail.catv1.md.home.com") You can get this info from
@Home also.
