Hello,
I have a strange problem I cant seen to understand what to do
about it.
I am running Apache as a web server and everything runs fine
when I am attached to my home LAN, using my own machine as the
gateway.
However, when I connect to the office to use the internet I have
to assign our ISDN
Hi !
Well, currently I'm trying to connect to the Inet using DIP, and scripts
but...
Here is my script which doesn't work well:
main:
get $local dookie.hr
get $remote 161.53.114.3
port modem
speed
19200
loop:
echo on
#init ATn1L3X3S11=70
init ATX3
dial 111222
wait 00
40
if $errlvl != 0 goto loop
Libc5 should still be installed (or can easily be reinstalled) after the
upgrade. It should coexist with libc6 without any problems.
Good luck,
Brandon
