Subject: Voicemail/pppd conflicts in webmin 1.03? - msg#00181

List: web.webmin.general

Date: Prev Next Index Thread: Prev Next Index
Hello,

I just installed latest webmin on Red Hat 8 using the RPM on the home
page. I did it on a stand alone desktop connecting to the internet via
ppp on serial port ttyS0.

I tried to set up an answering machine also on that port with webmin.
I choose

Answer mode = voice/voice/voice
Remove silence from end of messages
Keep messages containing data or DTMF codes
Do nothing after recording

Then I apllied the configuration. After that my pppd/chat script
connecting me to the internet stopped working. Error message:

+FCO+FCO^M

^M

ERRORERROR^M

Even after reboot.

I canceled the serial port from webmin, added /etc/nologin.ttyS0, and
now the Internet dialup script works again. What did I do wrong? How
can I configure the PC with webmin so that it does answer the phone
when I'm not there, but it dials up as before when I run the script?

Of course, let me know what other info I need to post here to make a
complete answer possible.

TIA,
Marco Fioretti

Well I found the old hostname from before my last upgrade to the latest 'stable' release.....it works great...'-f' and everything! So I'm ok, thanks for the help! --Paul -- William J.

IPTABLES

Hi I have set up a RH8.0 with ip masq on it, it routes traffic to my computers, but it allso contains a webserver (untill i get a computer seperate for that) Im running IPTABLES on it (kernel 2.4.x) and wondered if there is an interface that makes it easy to work with, i dont know if it might be like when you set nat commands in a router (where you tell what port from the internet ip and what ip and port it should be routed to on either netcard) I havent read much about firewalls yet, i got it activated, i just need to control it as easily and flexible as possible :-) Dennis -- <> ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf - Forwarded by the Webmin mailing list at webadmin-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To remove yourself from this list, go to http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/webadmin-list
