Darryl, Don't know much about PCI ADSL cards but you are running an old distribution.
IIRC Redhat 9 is probably getting to be about a year old. (and for software that's ooold)
Seeing as though you seem to be pretty early in your installation cycle it might pay to get a hold of a copy of Mandrake 10 Official. It's a good newbie distro.
Don't know where Paul's internet cafe has moved to now (Paul where are you now?) but he flogs Linux disks @ $5 /disk.

I don't know if am doing this right, new to mailing lists as well.
I am a newbie to Linux and have installed RH9 to a 4GB slave drive on my WinXp comp. (Athlon 2000xp, 512sd ram 40 + 4 GB Hdd)
Having dabbled previously, I always dropped the install because of lack of Internet access (too hard basket).
I am now trying to give it a real go but am having trouble configuring the hardware as RH9 does not support this card out of the box.
I have located and installed 4 rpms from http://www.data-technics.net/content.php?cat=7 <http://www.data-technics.net/content.php?cat=7> ,
1. accessrunner-2.4.20-8.rh9.0.i386.rpm 2. initscripts-7.14-2.cnx.i386.rpm 3. linux-atm-2.4.1.cc-2.0.i386.rpm 4. ppp-2.4.2b3-rh9.0.i386.rpm
which have resulted in the boot sequence locating the card and initializing an adsl connection but when I log onto RH there is still no card to find in the hardware browser.
I have a couple of areas of concern, I would like to check the configuration within the RPM's to ensure they are what I need, and I need an idiots guide on the configuration steps when everything boots. I have been looking but the level of help on the net is a little above me.
Thanx
