Windows Modem Script convertion

**mcdougrs** · 05-14-2002, 05:06 AM

Well I just got my modem working in Linux. So now I need to be able to get an internet connection... I can get it from my college for a couple of more weeks and they have a script for Windows but nothing for Linux. Well I was able to dial the number but it wouldn't actually log in, so I was wondering if I would need to convert the Window script. This is the actual script.

Code:

proc main
waitfor &quot;name:&quot;
transmit $USERID
transmit &quot;^M&quot;
waitfor &quot;word:&quot;
transmit $PASSWORD
transmit &quot;^M&quot;
waitfor &quot;&gt;&quot;
transmit &quot;ppp&quot;
transmit &quot;^M&quot;
delay 1
endproc

Hmmm.. Isn't wvdial doing just that ?

In Slack, pppsetup will allow you to create a chat script like this... been too long since I've done it in other distros to tell you how to do it... although you could manually set it up following the directions on the LFS website ( www.linuxfromscratch.org )
