The files that I've got to move are:
The secrets files... They are identical:
chap-secrets
pap-secrets
The dial script:
dial
The firmware. These I got from a downloaded tarfile.
speedtch
speedtch-1.bin
speedtch-2.bin
speedtch.ko
Disclaimer: I'm a Bash-script newbie! Please don't laugh too hard if
there's a simpler way to do this! (Or I've got it completely wrong! :@(
) :@)
This is the script I wrote to put them all in the "right" places, with
the "right" owners and permissions:
***
#!/bin/bash
sudo cp dial /etc/init.d
sudo chown root:root /etc/init.d/dial
sudo chmod 744 /etc/init.d/dial
sudo cp speedtch /etc/ppp/peers/
sudo chown root:dip /etc/ppp/peers/speedtch
sudo chmod 640 /etc/ppp/peers/speedtch
sudo cp speedtch.ko /lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/kernel/drivers/usb/atm/
sudo chown root:root
/lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/kernel/drivers/usb/atm/speedtch.ko
sudo chmod 644
/lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/kernel/drivers/usb/atm/speedtch.ko
sudo cp speedtch /lib/firmware
sudo cp speedtch-1.bin /lib/firmware
sudo cp speedtch-2.bin /lib/firmware
sudo chown root:root /lib/firmware/speedtch
sudo chown root:root /lib/firmware/speedtch-1.bin
sudo chown root:root /lib/firmware/speedtch-2.bin
sudo chmod 640 /lib/firmware/speedtch
sudo chmod 640 /lib/firmware/speedtch-1.bin
sudo chmod 640 /lib/firmware/speedtch-2.bin
sudo cp chap-secrets /etc/ppp
sudo chown root:root /etc/ppp/chap-secrets
sudo chmod 600 /etc/ppp/chap-secrets
sudo cp pap-secrets /etc/ppp
sudo chown root:wulfy /etc/ppp/pap-secrets
sudo chmod 600 /etc/ppp/pap-secrets
***
This is the dial script, which is essentially a "start" script. How
would I change it to allow stopping as well?
***
#!/bin/bash
modprobe ppp_generic
modprobe pppoatm
count=0
while [[ $((count++)) -lt 40 ]]
do
sync=$(dmesg | grep 'ADSL line is up')
if [ ! -z "$sync" ]
then
pppd call speedtch
exit 0
fi
sleep 1
done
echo "The SpeedTouch firmware did not load"
