My service provider uses dynamic allocation of IP adresses. you have to connect by modem, get throug a login/password sequence, and then the machine tells you "I am 194.2.128.something, you are 194.2.128.else" and the line gets SLIP. Can someone give samples of connection scripts I could use, and instructions for setting-up all /etc/* files involved NB: I also have a local ethernet network numbered 192.168.0.x according to RFC1597. Thanks for help.
