PPP was Re: Ethernet Card

[ace]

Well, now, I'm having problems initialising a PPP connection to my ISP.  I 
think I am learning my lesson for not going through make menuconfig 
thoroughly.  Oh well.  Anyways, when I did ppp-on, it complained that PPP 
wasn't compiled into the kernel or whatever.  So, I went and installed it 
as a module from menuconfig.  Now, when I run this command, I get:
Couldn't set tty to PPP discipline: invalid argument

One problem leads to the next...I was dialing up my Linux box so that my 
friend could log in and see what's wrong with my ethernet card.  Yes, I am 
networking two computers on my dialup connection so I can gain experience 
in this field before DSL reaches my area.
