Thanks for any help. I've struggled long and hard and can't make any
progress on wedial although its probably a somple oversight.
If pon and kppp work, why is it such a problem that wvdial doesn't work?
Dear Bill,
Not to sound snippy, but its broke. I can't stand things to be broke and
being so, it may cause other things to break. Wvdial is my prefered dialer.
Did you edit the wvdial.conf file on a Windows machine?
I only have woody and sarge-stable installed. If you had looked at the provided
data you should have noticed all the output is linux. Why wouild anyone want to
edit wvdial on windose? I really don't understand why you might ask this.
If that isn't the case, maybe wvdial.conf has the wrong permissions.
That was covered to a degree also. As stated I have added my user ID to all
appropriate
groups; dip, dialout,etc. However, since you asked, ls -l shows"
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc/init.d$ ls -l /usr/bin/wvdial
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 98408 Jan 21 03:38 /usr/bin/wvdial
You have new mail in /var/mail/lchata
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc/init.d$
ChatagnierL-Home:/etc/ppp/peers# ls -l /usr/bin/wvdial
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 98408 Jan 21 03:38 /usr/bin/wvdial
ChatagnierL-Home:/etc/ppp/peers#
And in any case, I have run wvdial as both user$ and root# with the same error
output on both:
--> Warning: section [Dialer Defaults] does not exist in wvdial.conf. Of
courtse, it does; unless
there is some syntax priblem. It does look like all past config entries.
I quess I was expecting some comments on the error message or stating that
something is wrong in
wvdial.conf.
Thanks for your interest,
Leonard
PS-You may have missed my request to copy my email address. It's easier to
reply with a copy
instead of building a reply from the list on web. Either way, I'll get back.
