internet connexn
For dsl connexn in 10.1 as root use adsl-setup. (10.2 uses pppoe-setup) To connect at boot add adsl-start to /etc/rc.d/rc.local.
Happy Slacking!

oh ok cool thanks guys.. now im connected and when i pull an ifconfig it gives me my ipaddress and says im connected and all (i used adsl-start) i thhought that is what i was supposed to use.. it gives me and ip so it is deffinitally connected and all. but is there like a.. network selector or something i need to use that i dont know about so that i can accually get on the net. when ever i open a browser it acts like its not connected and cant bring anypages up... hmm.. ill keep fiddling wiht it but if awnyone knows of anythign it would be greatly appreacviated. {8^) thanks -ZAc-
