NAME
wvdialconf - build a configuration file for
wvdial(1)
SYNOPSIS
wvdialconf
/etc/wvdial.conf
DESCRIPTION
wvdialconf
detects your modem, its maximum baud rate, and a good initialization
string and generates or updates the
wvdial(1)
configuration file based on this information.
wvdialconf
is completely non-interactive. You still need to edit
/etc/wvdial.conf
to specify the phone number, login name, and password of your internet
account in order for
wvdial(1)
to work.
It is safe to run
wvdialconf
if a configuration file already exists. In that case, only the
Modem,
Baud,
Init,
and
Init2
options are changed in the
[Dialer Defaults]
section, and only if autodetection is successful.
BUGS
We're willing to entertain the possibility. Let us know if you have any
problems by sending an e-mail to
<wvdial@nit.ca>.
Also, there is now a mailing list for discussion about
wvdial.
If you are having problems, or have anything else to say, send e-mail to
<wvdial-list@lists.nit.ca>.
DIAGNOSTICS
An exit status of 0 means that a modem was detected and the
configuration file was updated successfully.
Any other value means
that something went wrong and the configuration file was unchanged.
