Hi,
i'm a linux newbie using rh linux 8.0. I'm trying to
get wvdial to work, after setting username and
password in /etc/wvdial.conf and setting nameservers
in /etc/resolv.conf i tried to dial in. Everything
seemed to be working...
-->Looks like a password prompt. -->Sending:(password) -->PPP negotiation detected -->Staring pppd -->pid of pppd: 1385
but i get no response from 'lynx' internet browser. I tried pinging the nameserver (just needed an ip to test) and got no response.
My internet connection is definitely working because i can get a proper connection using the graphical interface 'Netowrk Configuration' and browse the web using Mozilla.
What could be the problem? Thanks in advance.
Try connecting graphically, opening up a terminal, then note down the output of the 'ifconfig' command and 'route -n' commands.
Then connect using wvdial, and see what the difference is when you issue the above two commands.
Regards, Ed.
