Single user system - No Network
I am using the Knoppix 3.6 bootable "stand alone" CD.
I am unable to configure a "Dial-up".
Modem test always gives me an error.
The configure menu asks me questions that I am not sure that I answer correctily.
My ISP: SWB (S/W Bell)
In the Configure dialog, are city and country really necessary?
United States and Dallas are listed in the options, but my ISP is not listed under Dallas.
My ISDN card is a "Conexant" (Is this the type of ISDN adapter?)
What is this: MSN/EAZ
Also the following:
NameServer
Domain
DNS
IP
Upon attempting to communicate with the modem from the root shell,
I get an "input-output" error from all of the "tty" commands except the following:
echo "anything" > /dev/ttyso
Even though I get no error from the above,I get no "sound" response, and
I think I have my volume turned up. It would be nice if I knew how to test for
"sound"
Also, where may I find a list of all the "commands" which are operable.
The "dip" command does not work.
I realize that this a confusing communication, but I am confused!!!
I really need some "hand-holding".
Thanks,
Milton
