I had similar problems using Wvdial ---PPP Daemon has died!

#16 Post by Shawnmao »

Hello, I had similar problems in connection to Internet.

I think I had problem with the PPP file.

Here was what happened. First I tried GKdial, it didn't workout. Then

I used Wvdialconf and got the right /etc/wvdial.conf. Then I use command line to run the Wvdial to connect PeoplePC. After trying several times, I kept getting an error and couldn't establish the connection.

The modem worked fine. I looks like I had problem with the "PPP". There is one line really worths attention:

"--->PPP Daemon has died! (exit code =2)"


"died", what a scary word!

So I check the log file. After carefully read the log file, I noticed this error message:

"Can't open options file /etc/ppp/peers/wvdial: No such file or directory"

It this the problem that I coundn't establish the connection?

If it is, how can I set up this file?

best regards,

Victor
