If its isn't, you can find it at rpmfind.net but I am fairly sure its on the CD's, I wouldn't dream of going back to the dialup scripts, (especially since I have ADSL now) but wvdial rules, it manages to connect in some really unusual circumstances. This url would tend to indicate that the it is indeed on the 8.2 CD's. http://rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/mandrake/8.2/i586/Mandrake/ RPMS/wvdial-1.42-1mdk.i586.html regards Franki -----Original Message----- From: savaidis [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, 27 August 2002 12:29 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [newbie] cannot connect with modem.

If you want to try an intelligent dialer, one that tries to figure out what the dialup server and sents it,. then install and configure wvdial all you have to do is install it, then read the man page, (its very simple I think you do something like: wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf It will then look for your modem, configure it and write all the details to the file wvdial.conf in /etc then you open that file in a text editor, and put your username and password and dialup number where it indicates you should and save it.. then simply type "wvdial &" in a console to start the connection, wvdial will monitor any requests made by the dial up server and answer with 'hopefully' whatever the server wanted. works flawlessly in the vast majority of cases and saves you having to mess around with dialup scripts and the like. good luck. rgds Frank -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of et Sent: Monday, 26 August 2002 6:29 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [newbie] cannot connect with modem.
