Hi all, if you have ever wondered how easy it is to set up DIAL-ON-DEMAND in Mandrake 8.1, you only need one line in lin Linux conf/network/ppp. I have been reading many sites on the subject like WVDIAL, which is mega complicated, and after you have done everything it will not detect your modem.
Well if you want DIAL-ON-DEMAND then drop me a line and I will e-mail you the steps, you don't need any scripts or compile anything, just enter a few words in linuxconf, it works 100% for me.

Otto, you should really just place it on here so it's easier on your mail and so that everyone on here can see what you are talkin about. Oh and what is Dial On Demand?

Hi MasterC it is so your dial up connection automatic connects to the internet every time it needs to, so yu don't have to think about connecting or disconnecting from the internet.

You are right I should have posted it here.
