Connection to Netvision
Hi,
I've got requests from a few friends of mine as to how to connect to
netvision from linux. Since I connect through T-A University, and I'm
somewhat lazy, I was wondering if anyone was willing to send me a dip
configuration or whatever the parallel is for ppp or any other
connection method.
It might be a good idea to establish a page in linux-il with
configuration files for all the major Internet providers in Israel.
P.S.
Before the flaming starts: I know that any half decent Linux genius
could work out those files by himself but I think many people would
prefer to use pre-prepared files, and between the members of this list
probably there's a representative of all major providers.
P.S.P.S
I get a feeling lately that some members of this list spend so much
time discouraging new Linux users from mailing their questions to the
list that the original purpose of the list has been lost - that is
promoting the use of Linux in Israel (at least that was my
interpretation of the list's purpose). I agree that users should read
the manual before contacting the list, but there are ways to point that
out without instilling the fear of Marc ... errr sorry I meant God into
them. The only list I know which came close to this level of flames is
rec.motorcycles and I sort of expected them to be worse not better (I
actually think that in recent time they've mellowed). As I browse
through the list's mail messages I see very few new faces, so either
Linux is declining in Israel or the list has become a member's club
only.
