I have discovered that after employing the Wicd Network Manager I can no longer connect via ppp. The reason, it seems, is that each instance of Wicd changes the content of my /etc/resolv.conf file from:
Code:
search SPRINT
nameserver 195.128.182.5
to:
Code:
Generated by dhcpcd
# /etc/resolv.conf.head can replace this line
# /etc/resolv.conf.tail can replace this line
It has been suggested that I write a script that does this. I'm out of my league on that one. I'm asking for help writing it and understanding why it works.
Thanks.
