NAME

qadsl.conf - qadsl configuration file

DESCRIPTION

qadsl.conf is usually found in /etc/qadsl.conf and contains username, password and login server information for your Internet connection.

SYNTAX

The qadsl.conf syntax is extremely free form. So if you have ever peeked into a UNIX configuration file before, you should be right at home, you should not even have to read any further ...

For those of you who hate configuration files, or never have seen one before, you should proceed directly to the examples section.

For most of the time you only need to supply a USERNAME, PASSWORD and LOGIN_SERVER. Like this:

USERNAME = u1234567
PASSWORD = pwd12345
LOGIN_SERVER = valo1.tiscali.se

However, most of the time the LOGIN_SERVER setting should be given as a pure IP address, like this:

LOGIN_SERVER = 10.0.0.6

This because the name of the login server sometimes is not listed in the name server (DNS) of your ISP. The number 10.0.0.6 is the default for all Orbyte Wireless System installations.

EXAMPLES

# Username
USERNAME = u1234567

# Password
PASSWORD = pwd12345

# Login Server, DNS name or IP number
# Tiscali valo1.tiscali.se
# Telia login1.telia.com
# COMHEM ????
SERVER = 10.0.0.6

# Start daemon [YES/NO]?
START_DAEMON = YES

# Daemon type [LOGIN/PING]?
DEAMON_TYPE = LOGIN

# Daemon delay in minutes.
INTERVAL = 20
