Help - Connecting to Netvision



Hi all,
I have received the new Red-Hat 5.2, Kernel 2.0.36.
However, I am unable to connect to netvision.
I have received a "Howto" document from Netvision (which is included
to this post)
  but was unable to get any modem response. The script stopped
  at the point: "Starting call to NetVision..."  . (probably pppd
didn't take control)

Any help is welcomed!

Please e-mail me since I'm not on the mailing list.

And one more question: If there's a Lex (lexical Analyzer) in the
Linux Package, under
  what name does it reside ? (I've searched the word "lex" but
haven't found any)

Thanks  ---Meir


Hi!
Please follow the instructions (as root) in order to connect:

1) Create file called /usr/local/sbin/ppp-nv and enter there:

#!/bin/bash
setserial /dev/modem spd_normal
(
  stty 38400 raw -tostop
  echo "Starting call to NetVision..." 1>&2
  if chat -t 180 -V -f /usr/local/sbin/chat_options
  then
    pppd /dev/modem 38400 modem crtscts asyncmap 0x000a0000 defaultroute
    sleep 5
    if ifconfig | grep ppp > /dev/null 2>&1
    then
      echo "Successfully connected to NetVision!" 1>&2
    else
      echo "Connection failed" 1>&2
    fi
  fi
) < /dev/modem > /dev/modem

2) Change mode for that file using:
chmod 700 /usr/local/sbin/ppp-nv

3) Create and edit file /usr/local/sbin/chat_options

ABORT BUSY
ABORT "NO CARRIER"
ABORT "NO DIALTONE"
"" "AT&F1"
OK "ATDT8509222"
CONNECT ""
: "username"
word: "password"
""

4) Change mode for this file too using:
chmod 600 /usr/local/sbin/chat_options

5) Edit the file /etc/resolv.conf:
domain netvision.net.il
nameserver 194.90.1.5
nameserver 199.203.1.20

6) That's all - in order to connect run /usr/local/sbin/ppp-nv as root

For any additional information you're wellcome to call me...

  Regards,
     Ron Katz
