[ILUG] ever forgot to turn on the dsl modem before you turned on the computer

Hi,

Another one from the I am not awake yet dept.

I forgot to turn on the dsl modem and I get for my troubles, the mail 
client giving out about not being able to pop mail.

Solution is simple run the following on the command line as root or 
using sudo:
dhclient

The leads to the philosophy of I have a connection, therefore I am.

Regards,

Paul
