I have a laptop [500mhz Celeron w 256mb RAM] that I used to connect via an external modem (the builtin is a winmodem) to my ISP. Several months ago, I bought a pcmcia ethernet card and have been connecting via my office lan. Obviously my /etc/resolv.conf now reflects that connection. If I were to use this laptop at home and connect via my external modem again, could I simply add the approrpriate info in kppp (rather than re-edit my /etc/resolv.conf) and have the connection read that info as long as I'm connected via kppp, or would that re-write my /etc/resolv.conf necessitating constant editing of that file whenever I connect via the "other" way (kppp v. ethernet card). I've never added all of the networking info to kppp. Usually I just give it my isp's phone #, my login name, and password, and let the network connection read from resolv.conf Anyone ever do what I'm asking about???
