Ran into some issues with the Mandrake 9.0 configuring it for a dialup account. This is on a fresh install (not an upgrade).
The gnome modem-lights applet (which is a really handy way to control manual or on-demand dialup connections) is preset to switch the ppp on and off using two scripts pppon and pppoff ... do these scripts exist anywhere? IMHO, Mandrake should standardize on diald as the preferred dial-up method as it's far more frugal than plain pppd on-demand mode and a breeze to set up. Also on the topic of using dialup and ppp, the installation process leads to a form to enter your dialup connection, but there is no way to actually /use/ that connection (this is for someone else's machine) The means to connect given in the menus (twice) leads to gnome-ppp where you must enter all the connection information in again. How should we use the sysconfig/network-scripts/drakconnect_conf information? -- Gary Lawrence Murphy - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - TeleDynamics Communications - blog: http://www.teledyn.com/mt/ - biz: http://teledyn.com/ - "Computers are useless.
