one of the worse fields for network configuration is the modem configuration.
eg: (at least in france) usualy providers provide kits for windows users that auto set dns, phone numper, pap/terminal based/..., whereas linux users have to get these data and feed drakconnet with it however kpp come with a database which is made of: - configs for provider - rules for accounting the first part is what is interesting for drakconnect. the db is sorted as country|provider (aka, tree branches are countries, leafs are providers). but the db is quite empty (eg for france, only clubinternet is listed). it would be nice: - to enhance this database (let spam kde :-)) - to make drakconnect: o read this db, o offer to pick a provider, o and prefill the modem configuration form format is (french provider ClubInternet example) : >===============================> > # KDE Config File > > AccountingEnabled=1 > > AccountingFile= > > Authentication=1 > > AutoDNS=1 > > AutoName=0 > > BeforeConnect= > > BeforeDisconnect= > > Command= > > DNS= > > DefaultRoute=1 > > DisconnectCommand= > > Domain=club-internet.fr > > ExDNSDisabled=0 > > Gateway=0.0.0.0 > > IPAddr=0.0.0.0 > > Name=ClubInternet > > Password=%PASSWORD% > > Phonenumber=0860301020 > > ScriptArguments= > > ScriptCommands= > > StorePassword=1 > > SubnetMask=0.0.0.0 > > Username=%USERNAME% > > VolumeAccountingEnabled=0 > > pppdArguments= > >===============================> so if you want to contribute to kppp, you're welcome :-)
