How do I: Auto disconnect modem.
 

Suse 9.2 using Kinternet.

How do I disconnect my modem from the internet after I have gone to bed?
Or. Where is this information please?

I have net sharing working. But how do I start the modem and connect from another machine?
Or. Where is this information please?

I'm pretty sure all this can be configured in YaST (the SuSE "Control Panel" equivalent).

From the main YaST screen:
- In the navigation bar on the left, click "Network Devices"
- In the main window, click on "Modem"

SuSE will then attempt to detect your modem. Once it detects it, you'll have the option of configuring a connection to your ISP. When you are configuring your ISP, you can set a value in seconds that defines how long the connection is idle before disconnecting. There is also a dial-on-demand, option - I believe that this, if set, will dial up to your ISP if data is requested from the net.

Have a look on the suse website (http://www.suse.com - I think) for more info.

I hope this helps turn you from the dark side! :)

The above does not work. Yeah suer, it's supposed to. My modem is still on the next day.

Using that sort of charm, you're going to have to for sure.
