bass_freak Posted January 7, 2002 Posted January 7, 2002 I have just installed Red Hat 7.2 and have little experince with linux. I have set-up my dial up account and what not, but when i try to connect (using PPP Dialer) it fails and will not connect, I could not get it to work properly in Mandrake 8.1 either.
