Title: pppd for tcl 3
Post by: funtikar on January 09, 2011, 06:57:27 AM

I couldn't connect to AppBrowser cause I only have a 3g modem which in turn use pppd to dial. This is really giving me a hard time since I have to download dependencies manually. I searched the repository and found nothing of ppp. So where is the pppd?

PPPD itself has no deps, so if you can script it, it alone should get you online.

xeznet had served me well in the times of dial-up...

The GUI requires to have TK/TCL installed.

Also there are other posts in forum regarding setting up ppp.
