Re: Driver for 536ep-Modem does not compile

[Philippe Vouters <philippe.vouters@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Wolfgang,

On my computer, I have the following resolv.conf files:
[philippe@victor ~]$ sudo find /etc -name resolv.conf
/etc/resolv.conf
/etc/ppp/resolv.conf
/etc/sysconfig/networking/profiles/default/resolv.conf
/etc/sysconfig/networking/profiles/defaultCopy0/resolv.conf

The one of interest with wvdial/ppp should be:
/etc/ppp/resolv.conf
not:
/etc/resolv.conf
