Connect using DSL Questions ??

Uhm this may sound real stupid but, I just installed RH Linux 7.2 and am trying to connect to the net. My computer is connected to the internet (DSL) through a network. I have no idea how to use the PPP utilities. What should I do?

Please don't scream RTFM! at me.
thanks.

edit:how do I enable html in my sig?

if you are using DSL. Chances are that setting your linux box up to be a dhcp client would be just the ticket

netconfig is the command (I think)
