Hallo Keri : - No, not hopeless, but its understanding what to put where that took me time. I'm just working in 2.2r3, so will try to find the files and get something to you a bit later on. They say a Winmodem usually doesn't work; yours might but coming from DOS I've never tried. Obviously you'll have been Root (maybe not?) and given it the command [pppconfig] in the console or else found pppconfig in a terminal display. Quite soon you have to decide about static or dynamic - mine never worked until I learned that static in this sense includes dynamic so I pick static and type in the DNS of my ISP, followed by the alternative DNS. More later and bon succes, Pat On Fri, 6 Jul 2001 19:10:56 +0100, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Hi guys, > I am forwarding this message to list Keri needs a help > Regards > Ismail Murat Dilek > ---------- Forwarded Message ---------- > Subject: Lunix Helo Enquiry > Date: Fri, 6 Jul 2001 16:25:30 +0100 > From: "Keri" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > Hash: SHA1 > Hello! > I've installed Debian in my system and cannot for the life of me > figure out how to configure the PPP. > I had been a Windows user for many years and was talked through the > Debian configuration via ICQ by an e-friend.
