I installed 4.2 on a 100 pentium and several other types of machine. Basic install. need it to dial out to my ISP. I can get it to do interactive ppp sessions as long as there are NO NICs up! As soon as I put a network card up ppp interactive mode hangs and never gives me a prompt! I am tearing my hair out.... What can it be. I have never had the before but every time on whatever oldish machine...this wierdness occurs. HELP please...suicide is very close Thanks keith http://travel.yahoo.com.au - Yahoo!
