myfiles.tar.gz
This is the name of the file to be created.
/usr/local/bin
This is the name of the file or directory to store in the archive.
It's also possible to specify several items here.
You may often find tar.gz files (or simply tgz files) on the Internet. You
can unpack these with a command like:
tar -zxvf filename.tar.gz
Networking
One of the key benefits of GNU/Linux over other systems lies in its
networking support. Few systems can rival the networking features present
in GNU/Linux. In this chapter, we tell you how to configure your network
devices.
PPP
This section is a quick-start guide to setting up PPP on Debian. If it
turns out that you need more details, see the excellent |PPP HOWTO| from
the Linux Documentation Project. The HOWTO goes into much more detail if
you're interested or have unique needs.
Introduction
If you connect to the Internet over a phone line, you'll want to use PPP
(Point-to-Point Protocol). This is the standard connection method offered
by ISPs (Internet service providers).
