Hi, I recently had a RoadRunner cable-modem setup, and it works perfectly
for Win95, but I'd like to use it with Linux.  Does anyone have a login
script to able to do this?  Any information available concerning setting
up Linux for cable-modem would be greatly appreciated.  Especially
information concerning RoadRunner cable-modem access in Fairfax, VA
with mgfairfax.rr.com  Thank you.

Andrew

Look up the Linux cable-modem Howto. That may help you.
BTW, I have a @Home/TCI cable-modem service and in my case, I
don't have to do anything special beyond configuring the ip address,
hostname, etc along with the ethernet.

Andrew, I'm on the Fairfax network too. Just install and configure
dhcpcd, the DHCP client for Linux. You don't need to login to RR in the
Fairfax area unless you want to access the account management stuff
(e.g., set up new email addresses, etc.)
