Hello. I am trying to use the gnome desktop on 7.1. I cannot get the gnomePPP dialer to work to save my soul. When I hit the connect button, it immediately pops up a window that says "PPP daemon died unexpectedly" after about twenty times, you would think it would start expecting it. I have tried to set all the parameters of the account, in all ways feasible, and tried it with root. The root will dial out and login but disconnect just as fast. Looking in the message log, it indicates that my machine wants the remote host to authenticate its self (which my isp really hates!). How do I turn off this desire to have the host authenticate its self? How do I get gnome ppp to work as a normal user. In linux conf the ppp0 account is set to let all users (de)activate the link. I finally got connected with kppp, but I feel like a traitor. I have used KDE and want to try something new. I think kppp works because it doesn't need to use the ppp0 account in linuxconf. And if you don't mind another question, what is a good mail client similar to kmail, that will work with out making our magically inclined friends mad? Sorry for the disjuncted feel of the post, but my brain is laying somewhere in the den quivering from exhaustion and fear pixels forming the word "Error" Thanks, Ivan
