by Hello,
I have just recently (in the last week) began using MKlinux DR3 on a
PowerMac. After finding out that removable drives aren't optimal for
running Linux (too many recovered errors messages) I have everything up
and running. The next step is getting on line. I can configure KPPP in
KDE Xwindows and it will dial up and start to connect just fine, sending
my login and password, but it ALWAYS times out and says there's a pppd
error. Now I have no idea how to configure pppd (and don't know where to
start). I'm using a standard internet provider, as in FreePPP and Open
Transport/PPP will connect just fine under the Mac OS without any
special settings. Is there a simple file I can download at put somewhere
that will get me connected? I have no clue how to edit the pppd file,
and all the examples I ever see are from people at universities that use
special non-standard settings.
Any help you can provide will be GREATLY appreciated :-)
Jeremy
p.s. please email me your reply if possible
