Connecting to internet on RH7



I just installed red-hat 7.0, and I seem to have trouble conecting to the
internet.
After some work I managed to get the modem working by installing kernel
2.4.2 (isapnp on kernel 2.2.something didn't seem to work, although it
did before on a debian system.)
Trying to use the redhat ppp configurator, the modem was
finalyrecognised,. i then tried to configure the isp detailes, but when it
tries to connect i get a falided to start net interface message (net is
the name of the configuration).
I tried to recompile the kernel, but to no avail.
On the debian system i used ppp-cofig, and pon, poff which worked great.
When i try the debug buton, on the setting window, the modem diles, ggets
a connection to the ISP, doesn''t recognise the user name and password
request, reports that it was sudenly disconected, and then tries to dial
in again.

Any sujestions as to how to tuckle the problem?

Thank micha
