(If you are using the kde gui) or pppd if using another. This is probably in your Internet sub menu. This program provides an easy to use graphical interface to set up your modem without having to write a script. The setup option allows you to select various options and writes the script for you (which you can then edit if you need to). The most difficult part is finding you modems device connection, The default is dev/modem but I found my modem to be on dev/cua1, trial and error was my method, eg select a device option and then query modem to see if it responds, if not then try another dev. I hope this helps, if not I will send you a copy of my modem script fotr Suse 6.4, that should help. Ps Linux only works with hardware modems, if you have a soft/winmodem you may have a problem.

hi, 10x for your answer. 1. I have found the kppp program. I ran it and it works fine. 1. u have found that your modem was connected to dev/cua1 because your modem was connected to com2. com1 will make it dev/cua0. 2. sorry, I have SuSE 6.4 and not SuSE 6.2 . 3. but can kppp write the script to a file, which i can run the file later? the problem is that I need the script/file. � <bullroot@indigo.ie> wrote in message news:_Aal5.14761$r4.7666@news.indigo.ie... > > eran <eran@cisco.com> wrote in message > news:965809082.782336@sj-nntpcache-3... > > > > i need help in writing a script for modem connection in linux suse 6.2 > > i don't know where to start at > > > > > > If you have a working X configuration, you may find a tool in one of your > menus called kppp or kppd. > (If you are using the kde gui) or pppd if using another.
