Please try the erratum http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2003-183.html and report, if your problem still exists. Thx and sorry for the inconvenience.. Well, I tried this, and I'm not even sure the package installed properly. I got the following: [root@localhost Desktop]# rpm -Fvh redhat-config-network-1.2.15-1.src.rpm warning: redhat-config-network-1.2.15-1.src.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID db42a60 e 1:redhat-config-network ########################################### [100%] It looks like it tried to install... but something seems to have gone wrong. either way, the Network tool no longer crashes, and does not give any crash data (it hasn't yet) but it still won't create a dial-up connection to the internet. When I set the dial-mode to 'auto', Network tool claims my modem connection is Active after I push the Activate button, but there is no dialing sound and pings fail. When dial mode is set to manual, it spends forever attempting to activate, and then decides that it can't. I have to use kppp (which seems to have some issues with being launched from the Panel, but I'll take that matter up with KDE) to dial the modem. Did you update rhpl as well? I wasn't aware it needed updating. Where can the update be found? sorry it took me so long, been quite busy... well I just got around to running up2date, and updated EVERYTHING! now, I STILL cannot dial the dial-up modem from Network tool, when I try, the program hangs, then my network (ethernet) connection dies too (ping returns "network not found" or something similar). I'm not sure why. When I do this am I telling it to replace my ethernet connection with a dial-up connection (which never happens anyway)? I think I can still dial using kppp. It is no longer a major issue since I now have a DSL connection through a LAN, but there are still occations where I need a dial-up connection. If there's a log file you'd like me to look for and attach I can do that too, if it might help (I just don't know which one you'd want) |
