But in this instance a log of the attempted dial up was shown with the message could'nt log on probable wrong password.
I only have this one connection and I am the only one using the machine. I have not changed the password or the connection settings for a very long time.
I decided then to use YAST 1 to check my network settings. To my horror when I select ppp network from the YAST menu, YAST crashed. Golly I haven't a clue what to do now. From the command line I type wvdial and fail to get a connection as a result of a possible password error.
So the questions are:-
How could the password have changed ? What files do I need to check for my internet connection to work ? What can I do to get YAST1 working again so that I can check the connection ?
There is no need of yast if you are using wvdial. Just edit /etc/wvdial.conf and check the password. Btw it looks like an ISP problem. Tazio.-)
