Hello, I am running Linuxconf 1.12r5, the version that came with RedHat Linux 5.2. I am trying to set up a CSLIP connection to my ISP with Linuxconf. In the past, I used to set up my connection with the dip script provided at the end of this message (username and password replaced). I would invoke the dip script with: /usr/sbin/dip /path-to-script/my-script.dip Now, I can't get Linuxconf to work with my CSLIP connection at all, whereas my dip script still works, and to prove to you that I have been successful with linuxconf before I will say that it works fine with a PPP connection I have also set up on my system and works both with Linuxconf and RedHat's netcfg utility. The problem with my CSLIP connection not working is reported in /var/log/messages : Feb 9 22:03:01 river ifup-sl: /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/dip-sl0 does not exist for sl0 Here is the list of files under /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ : chat-ppp0 ifcfg-sl0 ifdown-sl ifup-post chat-sl0 ifdhcpc-done ifup ifup-ppp ifcfg-eth0 ifdown ifup-aliases ifup-routes ifcfg-lo ifdown-post ifup-ipx ifup-sl ifcfg-ppp0 ifdown-ppp ifup-plip network-functions So, where did I go wrong? Do I just copy my own dip script to /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/dip-sl0 ? There must be an easier way than that, isn't there?
