I have installed Fedora Core 2 and use the KDE Desktop.
I have installed an analog 56k Modem.
I would really love to connect to the Internet with this Linux Box of mine.
I used the KDE program KPPPP but got an error message stating that
/dev/modem
does not exist.
Could anybody tell me what need I do in order to successfully get connected
to the Internet?

Make a symlink to an appropriate node in the /dev like:
# ln -s /dev/ttyS0 /dev/modem
and the /dev/ttyS0 should the port be where you have connected your
modem; mostly /dev/ttyS0 is equivalent to COM1: and /dev/ttyS1 to COM2:
in WinDOS world.
Hope that helps.
