I got gentoo 1.2 backup and running sort of... I have to have some kind of IP numbers for EFN to put in /etc/hosts in order to resolve any kind of telnet or ftp.
Also running pure-ftp....after I get pon to connect to EFN. what do I do then. I know its running breifly because if I go ifconfig it shows me that ppp0 is up and running at 56k. but it only stays up for about 40 seconds then goes. I want to connect and do an emerge rsync...but I only get messages that it can't find the host. if I try any type of emerge when the ppp0 is loaded it errors out saying it can't download http:///.....ya da ya da. What exactly do I do to get online and do the emerge thing..sigh. Thanks Daniel
