I've been promising this for a while, but now it's happened: The latest version of isdn4k-utils has been packaged.
I'm calling this experimental, because things probably WILL go wrong here and there. However, I'm using it (at least parts of it), and it works for me. Be sure to backup your configuration files first! *** Only use these packages if you can live *** *** with things perhaps breaking, and if you *** *** can fix things yourself when they do break! *** In this version, the isdnutils package has been split into smaller parts. By popular demand there is a separate isdnutils-xtools package so that those without X don't need to install any X libraries. These are the packages: - isdnutils base system e.g. isdnctrl, imon, isdn_cause manpage. Enough to run rawIP interface and X.75 with. - isdnutils-doc FAQ and MiniFAQ - isdnutils-xtools xmonisdn, xisdnload - ipppd Stuff for syncPPP connections (e.g. ISP access) - isdnlog Latest isdnlog binaries - isdnlog-data rate, zone, etc. data files for isdnlog - isdnvbox vbox ISDN answering machine - isdnactivecards stuff for active ISDN cards including firmware and capi. Large and not needed by most people. - isdneurofile The eurofileftransfer protocol software. These packages have been uploaded to the "experimental" distribution (but not yet installed at this moment, maybe today?), but are also available by using the following line in /etc/apt/sources.list: deb http://www.murphy.nl/~paul/debian isdnutils/ After this, "apt-get update; apt-get install ipppd isdnlog-data" should install isdnutils, ipppd, isdnlog, and isdnlog-data. You should install any of the other packages that you need. Isdnlog should ask you a couple of questions via debconf (e.g. what country you're in, what your areacode is), and create an isdn.conf file (if not there already). I recommend MOVING your old isdn.conf out of the way before installation, the new isdnlog NEEDS a couple of parameters not in the old version. In a later version I'll try to convert any old isdn.conf automatically. After configuration there should also be a /etc/isdn/rate.conf file, please check this. While testing it may be useful to know that /etc/init.d/isdnutils now accepts command like: /etc/init.d/isdnutils reload isdnlog to reload only isdnlog; this works for {start,stop,reload} {isdnlog,ipppd}. Please let me know if you use this version, and keep me informed of ANYTHING, good or bad. I *do* mean anything, like spelling errors or a complete destruction of your /etc directory (I hope not :-) (I already know that the text of the first isdnlog debconf message is wordwrapped here and there, despite extra whitespace in addition to the mandatory first space, which should be enough according to the debconf docs. Anyone know what to do about it?) Enjoy, Paul Slootman -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
