I'm running YDL 2.0 on a B/w G3 and I *finally* got ppp working this morning.
I did a vanilla developer install, but then had to go "massage"
/etc/sysconfig/ifcfg-ppp0
by hand to bring up the interface properly (more on this in a separate
post)!?

It seems to be there in the 2.2.19 kernel already. As for configuration...
I used the RedHat configurator (Dialup Config?), and it *almost* worked.
I had to mount my CS1.2.1 partition to see how to make things work....so
much for high level configuration :(
Sure wish I could find 'linuxconf', has it gone away?
