I've read through the archives for pacenet problems.
- I used the pppoe command. Does that mean I've rp-pppoe installed ?
- What exactly do I tell the pacenet people when I tell them to
create a linux user for me ?
After reading your problem, as an experiment, I tried using a Red Hat 8 machine on LAN to connect to the internet through a Win XP machine that was used as a default gateway. The XP used a shared dialup connection. On the linux side I used a fixed IP address with the usual subnet mask and the default gateway was set to the XP's ip address. I was able to surf the net using the mozilla browser in the linux machine.
