I have a laptop [500mhz Celeron w 256mb RAM] that I used to connect via an
external modem (the builtin is a winmodem) to my ISP. Several months ago,
I bought a pcmcia ethernet card and have been connecting via my office
lan. Obviously my /etc/resolv.conf now reflects that connection. If I
were to use this laptop at home and connect via my external modem again,
could I simply add the approrpriate info in kppp (rather than re-edit my
/etc/resolv.conf) and have the connection read that info as long as I'm
connected via kppp, or would that re-write my /etc/resolv.conf
necessitating constant editing of that file whenever I connect via the
"other" way (kppp v. ethernet card). I've never added all of the
networking info to kppp. Usually I just give it my isp's phone #, my
login name, and password, and let the network connection read from
resolv.conf Anyone ever do what I'm asking about???
Thanks,
Mike
