Re: Yamaha RTA 50i with RedHat 7.0

["junkyard boyoy" <clan_bd2@example.com>]

Yes, I've got the ethernet part working - it connects perfectly.  I'm also 
using the serial cable provided by Yamaha.  I have MS Windows installed in 
another partition, and have verified that it works.  I'm still a bit new to 
linux, so I'm not really familiar with "cu" and "uucp" packages :P  I was 
wondering if it would be possible to use the package that came with RedHat 
7.0 (the DialUp Configuration Utility), instead.  Seems to be easier to 
setup (although with no success).  I'd be more than willing to use the "cu" 
or "uucp" package, but the problem is, I've got no clue as to what they are, 
what they do,  or what they mean....  I'd appreciate it if you could give me 
some steps as to how I should get the package working.  Thanks!
