Re: Diald Setup
Okay... Got it re-installed and pulled a copy from the /usr/doc/diald
the diald.options which is missing from the /usr/diald and edited it to similar
like yours.
I also set up the connection using ppp-config and tested the ttyS1
which works. Now... I tried from the root using lynx and it failed since it
says it Unable to connect to remote host.
What other sections that need to be set like host.conf, resolv.conf and
others? I currently have the 2 nameservers set in the resolv.conf file.
Kind of weird since I can setup the networking system but not the
dial-up system. :) How did you set up yours to test the system? So I can see
what you did so I can set up this system and make it run. :)
