Re: [SLE] Dial on Demand Frustrated.

I used the german version form the web sight , saved the html , then used joe to delete everthing above and below it. You might have some old stuff lurking there , ie an old wvdial.dod script , old ppp scripts , old chap scripts etc... Try cleaning all those out. then run wvdial and configure it to work. Once it works , download , save the german html and edit it to remove the html code. Follow the instructions from the englisgh web page ( the instructions work , not the script) and be carfull to follw the exactly. If you want ti to wrok ehen ever you reboot , you will need to make the sym linhs in the instructions. At 07:36 PM 4/8/2000 -0400, Brian L. Jilek wrote:

I have been trying to get dial on demand going for a couple of months now. I just can't seem to get anything going. I tried diald for a while and after a couple of weeks gave up on that. Then tried the wvdial.dod script from suse. It didn't work out eighther. So I gave up for a while.

I just recently started trying it again with the wvdial.dod script from the german site. But I can't get that working. What the hell!!?? I had less pain setting up SAMBA and ipchains.

Can someone help me out? This is starting to suck. I figure I'm real stupid or something is messed up on my system. I'm hoping it's the system.

Anyway here is the output of wvdial.dod start: --------------- root@crow:/sbin/init.d > wvdial.dod start killing pppd process PID=14589 (Not all processes could be identified, non-owned process info will not be shown, you would have to be root to see it all.)

Someone please explain what may be causing: /sbin/wvdial.dod: [: too many arguments

ls: /var/run/ppp?.pid: No such file or directory

What is that ^^^^^^^^ for?

After starting it it will not connect. I can still activate wvdial myself. Thank you for any help.

P.S. I was root when trying to run this. I don't know why it gives the "Not all processes..." line. -- B. L. Jilek | ICQ: 10733954 | Linux user: 163800 PGP: DSS 0x800B3A69 RSA 0x3F1963C5 | OS: SuSE Linux 6.3 ---------------------------------------------------------
