Congrats!
Resolv.conf just contains the keyword 'namesearch' and the primary and secondary DNS IP addresses of your ISP.
Gotta love that wvdial. I used it before I got ADSL. At the time kppd was not to reliable and wvdial installs and configures automatically, and is very reliable. I don't know how kppd works on KDE 2.x, since I don't use a dialup anymore.
I use the personal firewall on my server. Every port scanner I tested it with says that they can't find a computer at the address I give them.
