Re:Re: Help understanding Tail msg:

["David Leathers" <leathers adams net>]

Hi Cameron:
Thanks for you reply.  I did turn off the html thanks.  You suggested that I
, -v (?) option to the chat invocation.  My problem is that I have no idea
how to do this.  I looked in the books that I have and can find no reference
to a chat program.  I'm really new to Linux and am about to pull my hair out
trying to get this connected,  I have been working on it about three weeks.

I did get it on line two days ago,  but since then it dials and connects
with the other modem and stops.  I have red hat 6.0,  there is a internet
set up by the name of netcfg with 6.0 this is what I have been working with
perhaps I should be using linuxconfig.  Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
