There are howtos on the subject. First, there are the modem howtos: http://linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/HOWTO-INDEX/hardware.html#HWMODEMS Then there's the dial up howtos: http://linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/HOWTO-INDEX/networking.html#NETDIALUP The routing howtos: http://linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/HOWTO-INDEX/networking.html#NETROUTING the security howtos: http://linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/HOWTO-INDEX/networking.html#NETSECURITY You should read through the relevant sections of the above documents, and then come back with specific questions. For example: I set up my modem to connect to vsnl, and I can dial out perfectly, but I'm having trouble resolving hosts, and downloading mail.
