Yup, 5.2, but soon probably upgrading to Mandrake 8.1 -- which IIRC is
based on RH anyway, right?

Once I get the account configged OK under Winders (which they say is
absolutely necessary for the account setup), I'll try what you said. 
Thanks!

If I were employed at the moment, that might be an option.  However, the
main reason I decided to take Verizon up on their offer, is so that I
could surf the web for job openings, more quickly, and leave the phone
line free (for potential employers to call me, or vice-versa).

I wouldn't either, except for the account setup (and my current lack of
major clue about Linux networking).
