Newbie problems with PPP in 5.2

OK, here's the story:
I"m completely new to the Linux scene, but after doing a lot of reading,
I decided to give it a try, mainly as a toy and a learning experience. I
bought the book Linux Unleashed which included RedHat 5.2, and have
managed it get it up and running on my computer, with XWindows also. Had
some problems trying to get my mouse to work, had it set up and
recognized, but my cursor kept jumping up to the upper right corner. I
started doing some reading, and when I came back a half hour later, the
screen-saver had engaged, and when I wiggled the mouse to disengage, the
mouse seemed to be working great.
Now I'm ready to start configuring my dialup to the internet. I think
I've read about every single howto online, printed most of them out for
reference, but it now seems something's not set up right with the
kernel. I've tried configuring by using linuxconf and going into the
netconfig, but after entering in all the appropriate info, I hit the
Apply Changes button, which tells me there was errors and shows me the
configuration log which states:
Checking base configuration
Checking kernel's modules
Mounting local volumes
Checking LILO
Executing some Sysv init scripts
*No APM support in kernel
>Starting up APM daemon:apmd
but at this point, my hard drive light stays on constantly, and nothing
happens. In doing some more reading, I read the all kernels from RedHat
come with PPP support, but to make sure, type in: dmesg | less
.......I've done that, looking for some reference to PPP, and there is
none.
Did some more reading....found another reference that says to type in:
rpm -qa | grep ppp to check for PPP support. Did that, it returned:
ppp-2.3.5-1......so does this mean I DO have what I need?
As if it weren't too obvious, I'm just starting out with this, I have no
programming experience, just an abundance of curiosity and patience. So
from what I've supplied here, can someone point me in the right
direction on how to proceed? Please be very specific, since I'm not up
to speed with the commands and such, but I'm slowly catching on to some
of the very basics.
Thanks for the help!

My version of Redhat traceroute works. I have a ppp0 and an eth0, and
so it notifies me when I run it that it is using the eth0 interface.
So, I have to explicitly tell it which interface to use. That's not
a "bug" is it? How should traceroute know which interface you want to
use if you don't tell it?

Something else I have noticed...
All I have to do to get the card running, once booted is:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/network restart
Then it's off and running

Hi,
Currently I have firewall setup and all dial-in users are using private
IP. I have a plan to limit all my dial-in users to checkin (name and
password) to a certain web page before they can have routes to outside
network.
I can manually enter in linux prompt the following command to provide
users access to outside network.
#/sbin/ipfwadm -F -a masquerade -S 192.168.1.2/32 -D 0.0.0.0/0
* note * 192.168.1.2 is dial-in user's ip.
However I would like to have a script to do the job.
Please provide solutions or suggestion!
Your help is greatly appreciated!
Thank you very much!
Denny

>> How do you assign a second IP address to the ethernet interface?
Pat,
You will need to patch your 2.0.x kernel with the IP Alias patch. You
can find documentation at:
http://metalab.unc.edu/pub/Linux/HOWTO
Then you can do something like, assuming your ehternet interface is called
eth0:
ifconfig eth0:1 <ip_addr> netmask <netmask> up
route add -net <network_addr> eth0:1
Rememeber to add these to your startup scripts.
Enjoy! :-)
