Re: Help with home Ethernet? RH8 on P100, 98 on K62-500

[Kara Pritchard <kara@luci.org>]

It's an autodialer problem with your Windows computer. It doesn't realize 
it's on a LAN.  I don't know where, but something has associated network 
applications to require dial-up. You might need to disable it until you 
figure out the problem.

You might also try installing SSH on your windows computer.  Windows might 
ignore that.
