. . . I'm assuming you have another computer that you used to send that email, and to download the nethack .deb file? What I did in that situation was to connect the two computers with a null modem cable and network them together, then use IP Masquerading and a proxy server to put the second PC on the Internet. See the Serial and IP-Masq HOWTOs for starting instructions. -- Carl Fink [EMAIL PROTECTED] I-Con's Science and Technology Programming <http://www.iconsf.org/>
