Hello:
Have installed RedHat 6.1 (Deluxe) on a Sparc 5 workstation
(sun4m).
Using a US Robotics 56K Fax/Modem (not plug and play).
Installed initscripts-4.70-1.sparc.rpm.
Lan contains three machines - bonsai, joyworks, anna
Having difficulty getting the ppp connection work properly.
Intel machine with same setup works.
RedHat support at a loss.
Suggestions welcome/badly needed.
Summation:
connects to ISP
ping works
nameservice not working
Message contains:
Some of the /etc conf files
Wvdial connection
Net status after wvdial connects
Results of ping and nslookup
Though I have been unsuccessful with wvdial I did try to
connect using
rp3 1.0.2 as an applet. Though not informative it did hang
on the connect
script. I also have a PC (joyworks) running RedHat 6.1 with
the same
configuration. Only difference is that one works and one
does not
(from my perspective).
Please send response to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Thanks
lloyd
