how do I run a script?
The SCRIPT facility makes it very easy to write a script, but the permissions vector does not not include an 'x' for execution rights. The script *belongs* to the root, which is how I'm logged in when I'm trying to access it, but when I try to invoke it, I am informed that I don't have the permission. I've spent entire DAYS trying to look it up in the several manuals, but have not as yet found the right manual or the right place in the manual.

Re: ADSL
Thijs Thiessens: Try the following: [These are commands to the terminal] cd /sbin /* this is where most of the commands live */ cp /etc/rc.d/init.d/adsl . /* now adsl lives here too */ ls/* lots and lots of commands! */ /* these commands from here need prefix "./" to run! */ ./ifconfig ppp0 /* need ppp0 2 run ADSL. Should reassure */ ping yahoo.com /* If no answer, pppoe not activated, so exit w.^C and try the next */ ./service network restart /* need six green OKs. if not, hit uparrow, and enter to repeat until success */ neat /* If tells you that can't activate, don't believe it! */ ping yahoo.com /* should answer. exit w. ^C */ /* if no ping response, try: */ ./adsl start /* follow that w. ./adsl status */ ping yahoo.com /* if that doesn't respond then I can't help */ === Let me know how it worked out.
