The connection doesn't get completed and I have to kill the process and start over. It takes three or four tries sometimes before I can establish a working ppp connection. When I try to click on the configure button, It won't open and it generates a crash report which I will include. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Try to open a ppp connection. 2. 3. Actual Results: Modem dials but the activating network device message never goes away and the connection is not established.

Created attachment 96380 [details] This is the md5 checksum data I got. They don't match. What do I do? I will inquire over at rhn if I can get replacements for these files. If this solves the problem, I will report back.
I downloaded the redhat-config-network rpm from rhn. The problem seems to have gone away. the md5 checksum data now matches yours.
