First, I'm new to Linux and firewalls, and newer still to this mailing list (2nd day receiving it). I am a member on the IPCops.net BBS, and I do see quite a few questions about installing broadband modems. It seems that even thou support for connecting to a DSL modem via USB port is getting better, the same support is not there as it is for an ethernet connection. If you go to www.ipcops.net, and post a question in the SUPPORT FORUMS > Miscellaneous Forums > Linux in General section there may be a couple people that can help with the information, and maybe in the DEV FORUM as well. You may want to try LinuxQuestions.org as well. Mike (a.k.a. AWEV) __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
