minicom config
Hi, I'm trying to get away from my modem failing to hang up properly and
am attempting to install mimicom. I went through the configuration
process and as root, the program at least starts the dialup process.
I aborted because I didn't want to be on line while in root. I then
switched over as regular user and got the following message:
~$ minicom d
minicom: there is no global configuration file /etc/minirc.d
Ask your sysadm to create one (with minicom -s).
Well I used "minicom -s" at the command line which takes me to the main
configuration screen. I assume the file /etc/minirc.d
goes in "Filenames and paths" the problem is I don't know which
line to put the file in from the choices below:
A - Download directory :
B - Upload directory :
C - Script directory :
D - Script program : /usr/bin/runscript
E - Kermit program : /usr/bin/kermit -l %l -b %b
I would guess "Script directory" but I really don't have a clue and I
don't want to screw this up. I am also assuming that I put
/etc/minirc.d
in either "A", "B", or "C", as root and the program will make the
appropriate file for me? I have been through the minicom man page and
don't see anything about /etc/minirc.d. I tried messing with the
minicom.users file to see if that would help, but it didn't. I would
appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Kent
