Hi
Wild stab in the dark, I am a newbie, do you reckon the problem is to do
with diald? Are you using YaST to setup your modem and ISP? I had this
same problem and I solved it by connecting to my ISP without setting up my
modem and ISP with YaST.
Cheers
Rich

Subject: [SuSE Linux] SuSE 6.0 dialup problem
Hi
After finding a problem which I thought was to do with something
else I have deleted the system and started again. I couldn't find a
file to edit to sort out the problem so I thought the best answer was
to start again.
After getting round to editing the samba files I have found that the
same problem has returned yet again. When I boot the linux box I
find that it tries to dial in to my ISP right away. I can't find any
docs that explain what this may be about. Not even a clue ? It then
connects and then disconnects and carries on in that way for about
ten minutes.
To get to this point I have added lines to etc/service.... swat
901/tcp and /etc/inetd.conf.... swat stream tcp nowait 400
root /usr/sbin/swat swat.
As I say, I can't find any explanation for this. Could someone
please send some e-mail if they can figure it out ?
As a seperate issue I have keyed in "wvdial. tcl" and wvdial. tcl &"
as well as "wvdial tcl" into a terminal window. The GUI doesn't
appear. Instead of this wvdial starts and then dials and disconnects
for ten minutes. Why doesn't the GUI come up ?
Thanks
