PPP and slirp

[MYERS]

} 	I have just recently coerced Slirp into working between my Ga Tech
} account and my Linux box at home. I interface Slirp using PPP. I am now
} trying to get a nameserver established AND get Netscape to find its home
} web site. 
} 	I would appreciate any thoughts / comments / hints on how to go
} about doing this.

I'm not sure exactly what you're looking for.  Have you configured your
/etc/resolv.conf file?  This is where you would define your DNS.  Is this
some of the info you're looking for?  If you've configured everything else
and actually have a PPP connection going, then you may get cooking by just
adding your nameserver to /etc/resolv.conf as follows:

nameserver 123.123.123.123

where 123.123.123.123 is the ip address of your nameserver.

Expand on your questions if this isn't sufficient to get you going.
