Dial-up Networking
I use Red-Hat 8.0, with Gnome, and I have a dial-up internet connection.
My phone-line however is zero-dial. At first I have to dial 0 to get the
dial tone, and later the number of my service provider.How do I change my
settings to accomodate this ? I tried prefixing the number with 0 and 0, and
0- but none of these options seem to work.

Thank you.

NAME

       dialups - list of terminal devices requiring a dial-up password

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/dialups

DESCRIPTION

       dialups	is  an	ASCII file which contains a list of terminal devices  that require a dial-up password. A dial-up password is an additional
       password required of users who access the computer through a modem or dial-up port.  The correct password must be entered before  the  user
       is granted access to the computer. The set of ports that require a dial-up password are	listed in the dialups file.

       Each entry in the dialups file is a single line of the form:

	      terminal-device

       where

       terminal-device	       The  full  path	name  of the terminal device that will require a dial-up password for users accessing the computer
			       through a modem or dial-up port.

       The dialups file should be owned by the root user and the root group.  The file should have read and write permissions for the owner (root)
       only.

EXAMPLES

       Example 1: A sample dialups file.

       Here is a sample dialups file:

       /dev/term/a
       /dev/term/b
       /dev/term/c
