I currently use pon to attach sometimes to my ISP and other times to my work location. To do this I have scripts called pon.nac and pon.cnet which look like:
# cat /root/bin/pon.nac #!/bin/sh CHAT=/etc/ppp/chatscript RESOLV=/etc/resolv.conf if [ -f $CHAT ] then rm $CHAT fi if [ -f $RESOLV ] then rm $RESOLV fi ln $RESOLV.nac $RESOLV ln /etc/ppp/chatscr.nac $CHAT /etc/init.d/ppp start # End of pon.nac ----------------- When I try wvdial to attach to my work location, I get a ppp connection, but it's not useful, because wvdial doesn't seem to have a facility to handle the /etc/resolv.conf manipulation shown above (the connection to my isp fails for a reason covered in another e-mail). I could, of course, set up an analogous script for wvdial, but I'm wondering if there's a way that wvdial handles the problem that I've overlooked. TIA for any help you can supply on this. BTW, I really like the verbose wvdial output, and the speed dialing. -- ----------------------------------------- Ralph Winslow [EMAIL PROTECTED] The IQ of the group is that of the member whose IQ is lowest divided by the number of members.
