Guess I've been on here too long. What make/model is your modem?
Master of Reality:
maybe you should read teh rest of this thread voidmain... he doesnt have a modem... yet
LorKorub:
I used some piece of shit FAX/Phone modem on my first attempt at SuSE, and it worked fine....once I launched X and was able to modify a few parameters.
With my experience with SuSE 8.0 (very limited), you should be able to configure most of your necessities with kpppd. Don't hold me to it, though. It all depends on your ISP. If they are a Microsoft rectum-leach, you might not be able to connect by adhering to the commented recommendations. It is up to you to send an e-mail to your ISP, asking specific questions on how to connect.
Your best bet is to search your ISP's site and see for yourself about what they have to offer. If they do not have linux/UNIX accesories, let them know. In the meantime, find a new ISP. It is all about elasticity....
Master of Reality:
linux connects via ppp the same way windows does (doesnt it) so it really doesnt matter what your ISP does.
Windows Slave:
Well, I have 2 modems right now. The one that is in the box with linux is a PCtel (not sure what model it is) and the other is just an extra I have laying around. It is a Lucent. From what I have read neither are compatible.
