Hi, my thanks to everyone for the PPP replies, they were really helpful. I finally got connected using netcfg, and I noticed pretty much everything was set up except the modem init string. I'm still not sure which files netcfg looks at, and how it knew where to find them. That is one thing that is making me uneasy, but I'll try finding out. Now to my new problem, I have a working RedHat 6.1 dist installed on a PII. I have a 486 that I want to use as a gateway, with just the ppp and routing stuff. I was going to try an ftp install (before transplanting a CD drive), using the PII in which I would host the RedHat CD. A previous RedHat 5.2 bootdisk gave me the option of installing from ftp, but 6.1 did not... I am forced to install the CD drive. After restarting from the bootdisk, I get up to the installation part where it asks if I want to add other devices. After selecting Done, the installer starts loading, and after a minute, it says it has caught a signal 7, and is exiting abnormally. Does anyone have any ideas of what could be the cause of this? Thanks for your time, Alex ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com -- SLUG - Sydney Linux Users Group Mailing List - http://www.slug.org.au To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe in the text
