Re: wvdial or ppp



i found that /etc/ppp contents fubars wvdial so what i do is empty /etc/ppp
and just
run "wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf" to set it up.

debian is different in most respect specially when it comes to /usr/local so
don't expect that what
you know in redhat will work 100% in debian.  well, between distros you can
also find differences
so never assume.
