Hi,

Six million *.rpm files later, I've finally got the Linux version of
Mozilla working properly. However, neither the Linux versions of Mozilla
or Opera seem to be able use my PPP connection - they simply can't
connect to anything, even when I'm fully connected and browsing using
the FreeBSD version of Mozilla.

Why is this? What setting do I need to alter to enable Linux apps to use
my PPP connection?

Regards,

John.
