While translating the file linesrv, I encountered the following typos, which I thought you might like to eliminate in a future release. ;)

Linesrv use a configuration file named /etc/linesrv/linesrv.conf, in which
are stored information about the various connection you use to make your
Internet Connection. If you answer YES here, and you have an analog modem to
connect to the Internet, the installation program will try to detect the
connections already setted up on your box. Support for isdn and adsl will
come soon. This could be useful: if you want to add, modify or delete a
connection, you can do it with your preferred tool (pppconfig, wvdial, kppp,
and so on..) then run

("Linsrv uses a configuration file ... in which is stored information about the various types of Internet connections you use. If you answer "Yes" here ... the connections already set up on your box.")

Linesrv will not run without a config file. An example copy of linesrv.conf it is installed in /usr/share/doc/linesrv. Remeber to set up it after the
installation. See linesrv.conf(5) or /usr/share/doc/linesrv/ for further
informations.

("An example copy of linesrv.conf is installed in /usr/share/doc/ linesrv. Remember to set up this file after installation. See linesrv.conf(5) hay /usr/share/doc/linesrv/ for further information."

"information" is a mass noun, already plural, like "rice" and "water", it's not countable. You can count byteS of information, kiloS of rice and litreS of water, but the thing itself, you can't count, so you don't use "s" on the end of the word.)

Installation program was not able to find valid configuration for $ {tool},
so there is no line-section in /etc/linesrv/linesrv.conf

"The installation program was not able to find a valid configuration..."

Here, you use "the", because you have talked about the installation program before, so we know which one it is. Using "the" is like using "this" or "that", you're saying "that program, the one I talked about before, you know the one I mean".

You use "a" when we don't know which one it is, when we haven't talked about it before. "a" means "this could be any configuration file, we don't have any specific information about it yet.)

The correct abbreviation for "ex gratia" ("here is something for free", has come to mean "for example") is "e.g.", not "ex".

"e.g. 192.168.0.1"

By default, linesrv listen on port 16007. Change it in /etc/linesrv/ linesrv. conf if you need. For further acces restriction, see man linesrv.conf (5)

Choose between these configuration tool, the one I have to guess
configuration from. If you use a tool not listed above, pls contact me at <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, or send a bug-report so I can consider to include your
configuration tool in the list.

"Which configuration tool will set options for this program? ... please contact me ... so I can consider including your configuration tool..."

Don't use "pls" in anything but light chat or quick email: it is not correct English.

This version of linecontrol need a Mysql database. Whitout it, Linesrv
cannot work. You should create the database on your box or specify an host
on which the database can be found.

"This version of linecontrol needs a MySQL database, so you need to create one on this machine, or specify a database host location, in order for linesrv to function."

installation. See linesrv.conf(5) or /usr/share/doc/linesrv/ for further
informations.

This string is the duplicate of the string quoted in 3, except for an exclamation mark. You will probably want to delete one of them. ;)
