You can try the RedHat (which also ships with YDL) tool it'll configure
ppp, slip, and ethernet devices.

As root, run "netcfg" At a minimum, this is a good utility to setup the
config files, as they aren't exaclty in the standard places with redhat /
ydl.

For the rest of the Redhat tool suite (which has been shipping with redhat
since 4.0 at least) as root type "control-panel" into a terminal wondow.
These are not the best tools on the planet, but they do work for most
simple configurations. They are written in Python (hence the
cross-platform ability) with the tk GUI toolset so you can use a mouse :)
