i found that /etc/ppp contents fubars wvdial so what i do is empty /etc/ppp and just run "wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf" to set it up.
debian is different in most respect specially when it comes to /usr/local so don't expect that what you know in redhat will work 100% in debian. well, between distros you can also find differences so never assume. ----------------------------------------------- who watches the watchmen? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Marc Maute" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <debian-user@lists.debian.org> Sent: Sunday, October 08, 2000 8:36 PM Subject: wvdial or ppp > hi, > I must ask again. > OK step by step: > 1.I installed Debian. > 2.I configurate wvdial > with my old redhat etc/wvdial.conf > 3.
