I finally made connection to msn. I discovered you must put MSN/ (in caps) before your logon name (MSN/<?user name goes here) with none windows software. After connecting my browser would not load anything, and searching in the instructions I found mention to kppp and to edit /etc/sysconfig/network and add GATEWAYDEV=ppp0 It works browser works fine. Now log shows connection succeeded but the network admin tool shows not connected (it showed connected before changing file) but at least I am online. Now to set up email and I can send kudzu data. I am also having problems with installing software from discs that came with my sony lcd (to adjust picture settings) and my belkin ups (to install shutdown software). The cds are mounted and I can see a lot of windows files and some linux tar files that I can open I have no idea what to put were and what to execute. Thanks Again, All help is appreciated. -ron-
