Hello,

I just reinstalled Knoppix 3.9, to my hd. I had this working before. The wvdial.conf is not being created/saved to the hd using the command : wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf . I'm using root status. I ran the /dev/modem/ connection setup, setting the modem to ttys0. I'm using a serial external modem. Below is term window output:

root@webguytx:/home/robert# wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf

Note: it hangs and I hit ctrl+c get to prompt

root@webguytx:/home/robert# ls /etc/wvdial.conf

ls: /etc/wvdial.conf: No such file or directory
root@webguytx:/home/robert#

How can I get this to save the file?
