Ciao Everybody, Looking good with my install now. Trying to get my ISP dial-up going, Installed Xisp I can get the intial call in but when I get prompted for Username: and Password: with using PAP and papsecrets file correctly set up. or by setting up the send and expects fields correctly without pap it and to bring up a post dialup terminal screen I can't enter in the username or password it just doesn't work. It just gets to the Username: prompt and sits there stupidly. And I tried every config. option in Xisp, the connection gets established xisp, just doesn't send my username and password nor does it let me type it in. So, I went to defcon1.org and downloaded the two scripts that I figured I would try to use. ppp_script2.sh I can run the script and answer all the questions and provide the appropriate info, but when I get to the end of it and it says it is going to write the files it just crashes at or near line 356 near "else" basically for when it should rename (mv) the old the ppp.conf file? Now is this script only for sh? or csh? Cuz I am running bash, is this the problem? also, tried to install and run PPP-config.0.2.2.tar.gz but make runs fine but when I run make install it's general flakiness Do these scripts actually work? Any, comments, suggestions, info, insights, and help would be greatly appreciated.
