Re: wvdial/ppp config question
Actually, I found out that i just needed to add "usepeerdns" to the wvdial
file under /etc/ppp/peers. wvdial interacts with pppd so that apparently
pppconfig doesn't touch its config files, though they use the same format.
Thanks for the advice, though! I'll probably need to swtich to pon/poff
later anyways...
