I am having problems seting up Freewwweb. I would like to set up Freewwweb on my Linux box. I am running Redhat Linux 6.0. I set up my dialer which is simple 'usernet'. From a terminal window I login as root, I type "linuxconf" and I then setup my dial via: PPP/SLIP/PLIP under network/clients. This lets me add a new ppp connection with the phone number I need to dial and also my username and password. Then I set the primary and secondary DNS using linuxconf via: Name Server Specifications (DNS) which is also under network/clients. The DNS that I provided are: 216.70.64.1 216.70.64.2 I checked my etc/resolve.conf file and it shows my username@freewwweb.com and the (2) DNS numbers that I mentioned above. This is all that is in my etc/resolve.conf file. I have another service provider that I setup exactly the same way as I described above and that connection works fine. I've read other people have success using kppp. I've also read that kppp is similar to usenet but is much more refined and more useful. It shouldn't matter which dialer I use should it? Any help please. Thanks
