Thanks, Tom First off, you'll get better response to this type of question from the regular TCLUG list, than from the TCLUG development list, which deals more with programming questions and has fewer people subscribed. For this reason, I'm sending this message to both lists. If you're not already subscribed to the TCLUG list, you might want to join. Second off, I'm sure some one will be able to give you a hand, but it would be helpful if you provided some more information. A few pieces of information you might want to supply: the version of Red Hat (and whatever other distributions you've tried), the model of computer you're trying to install on, the brands and models of the modems you've tried, the tool within Red Hat you're trying to use to set up the modem connection, and the ISP you're trying to connect to. There's probably more info that would be useful, but you get the idea. -- Jim Crumley |Twin Cities Linux Users Group Mailing List (TCLUG) crumley at fields.space.umn.edu |Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota Ruthless Debian Zealot |http://www.mn-linux.org/ Never laugh at live dragons |Dmitry's free,Jon's next? http://faircopyright.org
