Perhaps you have some strange situation going, but if ppp is working
correctly, netscape should work pretty much automatically. Have you
checked you ppp connection with ping and telnet? (btw I have a wierd
thing going where netscape works and I can telnet anywhere but can ping
only my immediate PPP server only by number. Any ideas?). You can also do
ifconfig as root and see if you see a ppp device ppp0 the shouls by UP
RUNNING or something like that. If this stuff doesn't work, then ppp is
not yet working right for you. A few more details about what is going on
and I will be able to help you more.

I like six eggs when starting on a journey. Fried - not poached. And
mind you don't break 'em. I won't eat a broken egg.
