It's perfect now
I'm glad to hear this.
It was a bit more complicated . When I did /etc/init.d/isdn4linux stop it said: ERROR: "net.ippp0" has not yet been started. Funny! So when I looked in the isdn4linux script I saw the command isdnctr writeconf and that command works ok,It wrote the config to /etc/isdn/isdn.conf.
Well, actually in /etc/isdn/isdn.conf are some other important things needed for isdnlog to work correct.
Another funny thing is that tehe options writeconfig and readconf are not in man isdnctrl
I don't know if this is just undocumented or added by gentoo.
Now still with /etc/init.d/net.ippp0 start I get
*Loading isdnctrl configuration ... Section 'ISDNCTRL' has no entry 'INTERFACES'
*ERROR: Problem starting needed services. * "net.ippp0" was not started.
So when I looked again at the isdn-script,I saw that they get the variable ISDNCTRL_SAVE from /etc/conf.d/isdn4linux and there it was set to some obscure place like /var/lib.When I set it to /etc/isdn/isdn.conf and copied tthe pap-secrets I could do emerge lynx and an hour or so later the miracle was completed.
Just like I said before: you wrote the config into a file which is designated for other purposes. The file /var/libisdn4linux/isdnctrl.conf is the one which should contain the isdnctrl-config and where you should have written the isdnctrl-config to. Correct this and reinstall /etc/isdn/isdn.conf and adjust it to your needs like area-prefix and so on.
Viele Danke Jan,it was fun! Without your help I would probably have give it up
You're welcome. We reached a working system, but soon you'll have a well-working system. Jan
