Re: ISDN @ RH6.1



Yes, I see. but what about the RH isdn script ? Is it useless altogether ?
It is looking for a file called /etc/isdn/activeisdn (or similar),
probably to pull settings and set a lot of variables that are used in the
isdn script. I would like to use the RH way since it isn't my machine.

Can you mail me (not the list) the script you made ?

Thanks, Schlomo
