gpppon - a graphical gtk user interface to run the pon/poff scripts
gpppon provides a easy to use GUI for the pon/poff scripts.
You need gtk, gdk and glib libraries + header files to compile gpppon. You
you should have these things if you are using e.g gnome or gimp. gpppon
was tested with gtk+-1.2.1 but should also run with other gtk versions.
To compile run:
make
To install gpppon and the man-page run:
make install
gpppon reads the names of the configured providers from /etc/ppp/peers and
calls the pon script with the selected provider as argument. The user
running gpppon must be either root or a member of the 'dip' group.
gpppon is installed 750.
You can configure ppp for pon/poff and gpppon with pppconfig, or refer to
the ppp documentation in /usr/doc/ppp (SETUP in particular) to do it by
hand. Note that 'pon' just runs 'pppd <provider>' while 'poff' is
essentially 'killall pppd'.
