Hello ,

You can configure sendmail service on your RH server and install pppd.
This enables any windows95 m/c to connect to your box and use mail
services. To flush to mail to internet and receive from internet. You
have use pppd to connect to ISP.

Documentation - /usr/doc/HOWTO/ISP-Hookuo-HOWTO
/usr/doc/HOWTO/PPP-HOWTO
/usr/doc/HOWTO/Serial-HOWTO

You can also search on www.redhat.com

Try running update scripts provided on PCQuest (same month). It will
configure for pppd ( not sure of this ) if you have modem connected.


I have done this with slackware 1.0.2 

I wish you good luck

Bye
