If you have a Traverse card they have a step by step guide on their
website (www.traverse.com.au). However, I didn't like their method
particularly as it didn't fit in well with the RH system of doing
things. I found rh-isdn-conf-0.53-3 and rh-isdn-0.53-3, installed them
on the RH6.0 system. You may not need to do this on RH6.1 as it seems
to include the ISDN utilities and perhaps supports ISDN ippp devices.

I didn't have to compile the utilities or the kernel.
