Red Hat 9 is ~5 years old, so I'd hate attempting to misremember every little detail about it. It'd be best if you could relate to us more details about your situation and what you've tried. What have you attempted so-far and what were your results?

If you have yet to attempt anything, start with the GUI network preferences program gnome-network-preferences. You can find it in one of the menus at the top or bottom of your screen, or by typing "gnome-network-preferences" into a 'run' dialog or console.
I got the answer.
滑鼠右鍵點選toolbar上"有線網路連線",然後"編輯連線",選"DSL"頁面,新增一個連線,service為server的名稱,最後滑鼠左鍵點toolbar上"有線網路連線",選剛剛新增的連線名稱

But after I download some update in red hat 9.
It appear the waring (when I active the ADSL connection) about AVC is denial and some message as below:
I cannot find the pppd in home directory. Could somebody tell how to solve this problem?

Summary:SELinux is preventing NetworkManager (NetworkManager_t) "execute" to ./pppd(pppd_exec_t).Detailed Description:SELinux denied access requested by NetworkManager. It is not expected that thisaccess is required by NetworkManager and this access may signal an intrusionattempt. It is also possible that the specific version or configuration of theapplication is causing it to require additional access.Allowing Access:Sometimes labeling problems can cause SELinux denials. You could try to restorethe default system file context for ./pppd,restorecon -v './pppd'If this does not work, there is currently no automatic way to allow this access.Instead, you can generate a local policy module to allow this access - see FAQ(http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2961385) Or you can disableSELinux protection altogether. Disabling SELinux protection is not recommended.Please file a bug report (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi)against this package.

Older versions of SELinux were a little buggy; I used to turn this feature off. That may help you. Can I ask why you are using such an old distribution though? Why not use a more up-to-date distro like Fedora 9?
