happy purim everyone :) (and for those of you in jerusalem, have an easy fast today)
diego - thank you very much for your efforts ... i am not yet ready to give up on this modem... i do have an "Alcatel Speed Touch Home" modem if necessary (but i hope it isn't) and i understand that it has a router inside. to the linux-il list i plead: can any of you please help me reconnect my linux box to the net? see below: i have spent the last 10 days or so trying to get help on the gnubies-il list, but no one seems to be able to help me connect to the net from my slackware-linux server, via my new Samsung EHT-300 modem, which uses pppoe. my isp is bezeq internet (so they won't give me any tech support for linux), but i really need to reconnect my linux box to the net... thanks in advance to everyone who can help me :) may you all receive plenty of "mishloach manot" :) best, yasha harari [EMAIL PROTECTED] > -----Original Message----- > From: Diego Iastrubni [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Sun, March 16, 2003 6:37 PM > To: Yasha Harari > Subject: Re: [gnubies-il] my pppoe.conf file > > > ok, I got NO IDEA what is wrong... > > All the config files look ok... > That last resourt can be making you modem a router... are you > brave enough? > > I am thinking of doing it... > > - diego > ביום ראשון 16 מרץ 2003, 15:56, Yasha Harari כתב: > > hello diego and all, > > > > my isp (bezeq ben-leumi) doesn't give any tech support for > slackware-linux, > > period. :< > > > > my passwords are set ok, yes... and the error i get when i fail > to connect > > is: > > > > first a bunch of "......." marks show up ... 16 "periods" to be > exact ... > > the message looks like this: > > > > ................TIMED OUT > > /usr/sbin/adsl-start: line 191: 10743 Terminated $CONNECT > > "$@" >/dev/null 2>%1 > > > > > > got any clues what this could be? how to fix it? i looked at > line 181 in > > adsl-start but couldn't figure out what to specify... diego? anyone? got > > ideas? :) > > > > thanx and happy purim everyone, > > > > yasha harari > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > > > > > > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Diego Iastrubni [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Sent: Fri, March 14, 2003 6:10 PM > > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Yasha Harari > > Subject: Re: [gnubies-il] my pppoe.conf file > > > > > > the gunny thing is that it look ok, is the passowrd set > correctly? what > > does the isp say when you try to connect? > > if thay say they dont support linux, say: "so what? help me anyway" > > > > ביום שישי 14 מרץ 2003, 13:45, Yasha Harari כתב: > > > thanks, diego .... here is my pppoe.conf file ... i hope > this is what > > > you meant, since i could not find a pppo.conf file anywhere on the > > > server... > > > > > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > > > > > > > ====START pppoe.conf==== > > > > > > > #********************************************************************** > > >* # > > > # pppoe.conf > > > # > > > # Configuration file for rp-pppoe.
