happy april fool's day everyone :) well i guess timing is lots of things ... one of those things being comical irony.
the news: with the help of my dear friend simba, we reinstalled the rp-pppoe-3.5 program on the linux box here, and this time, it worked with no problem. how we did it: after installing with the default settings on every option, we ran ./go and it connected right away to the net, and the connection seems ok for now ... anyone here have any comparitive data btween this modem and the alcatel or orckit? anyway ... didja hear the news? "Saddam wins!" (April Fool's!) and thanks for the help to everyone that was so ... helpful (duh!) cheers, yasha harari [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.thedailydose.com - keeps you laughing :) > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Oleg > Goldshmidt > Sent: Tue, April 01, 2003 1:16 PM > To: Gilad Ben-Yossef > Cc: Ira Abramov; [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: "Hamakor" finally established! > > > Gilad Ben-Yossef <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > > > Ira Abramov wrote: > > > > > While Hamakor doesn't mention that in it's guidelines, the purpose it > > > was created for is to act as a legal and financial body to represent > > > activists. if you find a sponsor for your project and they need a > > > > You are confusing 'reason' and 'purpose'.
