Well, I got networking running. Very strange, I had this a machine at work and I had changed the ip info in OS9.

I Started OS9 just to see if it would work and relized those settings. Swithed them to my @home info and it worked fine Then I restarted OSX and bam.... no problem... I dont know why that would do it, but it did. hehe

I still cant get MY OS9 selected in the classic preffrences..Within OSX and yes I did unlock the control panel So, someone please help me ... thnx

From what I gathered from reading the Docs and built-in help files that the PPP Connect is going to be much improved. Atleast to the point that it works like OS 9. When they say you go from running a network to a dial-up conenction you have to restart which they say is not going to be the way it is in the final version.
