Hi All,

I would like to ask those who have used Linux Redhat 4.2 before..
I have manage to get my LAN to work.. now I wanna get my ppp as well.


I have try to get my ppp to work .. now I try to manually dial in using 
minicom then exit without reset the modem.. all work fine... get connected
and able to start the ppp connection... after that I start the 
pppd -d -detach /dev/ttyS1 38400 &   

I try to ping my isp host but it say .. host unreachable

also I try $route -n
and somehow there is one entry that point to ppp interface...there should be 2.
the one I got is the destination .. there is no default ... it appear as 0.0.0.0.

I want to know where is the file that I change the default route  ...
because I believe the default route is pointing to my ethernet card.. or local nloopback..

regards,

Jason Ung
