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-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.
