Well I got the modem to dail up and everything last night. But today I got on and i retyped the code and everything went the same except I used Kppp and each time i dial i hear the dial tone sometimes and sometimes the numbers get punched in but it keeps saying modem script timeout whats the problem here?

Also how can I make it that I don't have to type the stuff each time i start Linux.

I saw some tutorial on it but i don't understand how to install it to your rc.d and rc.local files can anyone help?

i am a

Perhaps you need to read some guides on Linux?

These can be downloaded and read on your computer and the Rute is available in hard cover as well.

Linux Newbie Administrator Guide
Rute User's Tutorial and Exposition

It depends what it is but you can probably just put it in rc.local

could you possibly tell me how to put it into the rc.local files like the commands and stuff and where I go?

You basically open rc.local and at the end type in the commands (each on a new line) that you would normally type then save the file.
