What is the full PATH name of wvdial.conf The default is /etc/wvdial.conf Once written, it should have the following permissions: $ ls -l /etc/wvdial.conf -rw-r----- 1 root dialout 440 2008-05-01 09:55 /etc/wvdial.conf on a Ubuntu/Debian style system or on a RPM based System, like -rw-r----- 1 root uucp 440 2008-05-01 09:5 /etc/wvdial.conf should then be stable. But you can copy it to your home folder. Then your worst case would be copying it back to /etc/wvdial.conf MarvS On Sun, Jun 29, 2008 at 9:49 PM, Edison <edison@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hi all, > > This is strange for me. I connected for once.
