Request - wvdial

<< < (2/7) > >>

qb4:
Juanito,
Humour me please. Remember I'm new here. :-X
Is there another extensions section than the one we are in at the moment?
If so would you please point me to it.
I have done a forum search for libssl without result.
If you mean in the repository, http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/tinycorelinux/tce/ it is not there.

Also there is no wvdial.conf in /etc, it is in /usr/local/bin.
It is an ELF file and I can't edit it with Leafpad or the editor in emelfm2.

Help!

Jason W:
openssl-0.9.8h.tcel   is the extension that you need to install.  I forgot to mention that when I packaged it. 

there is a binary called wvdialconfig ( I think that is the name, I am on Windows now ) that will create the /etc/wvdial.conf when it is run.

I will put all this into the info file and make a .dep file to automatically install openssl.

Also, upon further examination of docs wvdial seems to also depend on pppd.  I will work out the details this evening.

kagashe:
wvdial is required not only for Dial-up but also by the people who use mobile phones and PCI/USB Data cards supplied by Mobile operators.

wvdial uses pppd to connect.

qb4:
OK,

Installed openssl.
Configured wvdial.conf.
Wvdial couldn't find PPPD... had to add a PPPD Path to wvdial.conf.
Dial.. connect.. no /etc/ppp/pap-secrets.. I created one.
Dial.. connect.. PPPD died, exit code 242.

I'm learning fast, but now stuck at this point.

Jason W:
I will try to better interweave wvdial with ppp, and see what needs to be done to make it easier to dial up.
