kinternet alternative in FreeBSD
Matthias, Polytropon: I have answered to your messages using reply to but my messages haven't reached the mailing list. I am posting now my answer in a new (not reply to) mail. Thank you for your answers. I am using KDE 3.5.10. I would like to use FreeBSD as a desktop machine for replacing openSUSE if it is possible at all. For clarity, I do not need exactly kinternet, I want only an GUI frontend for pppdial which possibly resides in system tray and can be used to control network connections. In openSUSE kinternet is a frontend for smpppd package. smpppd requires ppp. I will try to look into it whether smpppd can work with FreeBSD's ppp. Thanks, Istvan ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
kinternet alternative in FreeBSD
Hello FreeBSD users: I am new to FreeBSD. I've been using openSUSE for 8 years but would like to try something different. I have installed FreeBSD 9.0-RELEASE from DVD and configured KDE3. I also configured DSL (pppoe) connection that automatically connects the computer to the network. In openSUSE I have kinternet (and its alternative qinternet), an application which incorporates into KDE system tray and indicates whether network connection is active or not. It can also be used by the desktop user to disconnect and connect from/to the network (eg. for getting new dynamic IP address or test downloaded web pages offline). Is there a similar program in FreeBSD? I could not find kinternet or qinternet in ports database or by googling. Thanks in advance, Istvan ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
