It's ages since I had to do a dialup installation.
My client's ISP (wanadoo, Spain) tells me to use kppp to configure the installation. When I go to install kppp, yast tells me that kinternet is the tool to use.
In the days of 6.2 I seem to remember it all being done with Yast. Surely, they write to the same files don't they?
Does it matter which I use?
I prefer kppp and have used it in SuSE 9.0, 9.1 and now 9.2. Works well for me.
My favorite is good old wvdial, which I have used from my first Linux days in SuSE 6.3. Once I understood how to configure /etc/wvdial.conf, things looked transparent and easily understandable, so I never found a reason to switch to something else. SH
