Hi,
i was not very satisfied with the ISDN Internet configuration
of MDK 8.1. It's unaccaptable to give every user the root passwort
just to connect the internet. The correct way is probaly to set
up PAM to allow net_monitor for internet users.
I have no idea how ti configure PAM and used sudo insted.
Secondly the connections timeout doesn't work because some
program or deamon makes continious DNS calls to www.mandrakesoft.com.
I stopped all programs but the problem persists until i
configured /etc/hosts with www.mandrakesoft.com. It may be something
of my GNOME Desktop.
My target is to configure my ISDN connection that it starts
net_monitor if anny program wants internet access. But
net_monitor should only make a connection if the user wants
it. If the user decides to have a connection, net_monitor
starts a dial on demand connection which drops the line
after some time and restarts it if some program needs it.
If net_monitor stopps than the connection drops permanently,
which means no net_monitor no internet.
But now to my problem with the net_monitor(.real) script.
It looks really nice for the user but is in perl which
makes it hardly readable for me.
I can start it but it doesn't create an internet connection
because it thinks it is connected.
[root@zesi lib]# net_monitor --connect&
[1] 2962
[root@zesi lib]# isdnctrl status ippp0
ippp0: No such device
I can create a connection with the net_cnx_(up|down) scripts
but it returns two errors.
[root@zesi network-scripts]# ./net_cnx_up
