From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4.1) Gecko/20031114 Description of problem: I'm using an old USR Sportster external modem. Initially ran redhat-config-network and modem would not go "off hook" or dial although LEDs indicated some communication from the system when I attempted to dial. Ran wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf, it updated wvdial.conf and modem works. Attempted to revise configuration using redhat-config-network. It overwrites the wvdial.conf file incorrectly and the modem no longer dials. wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf adds: [Dialer Defaults] Modem = /dev/modem Baud = 115200 Init1 = ATZ Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0 ISDN = 0 Modem Type = Analog Modem redhat-config-network eliminates the above section and it seems to be required. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): redhat-config-network 1.3.10 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Run redhat-config-network, change config and save it, modem dial fails with "error 8" 2.Run wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf and modem dials 3.Run redhat-config-network, change config and save it, modem dial fails with "error 8" Actual Results: Modem failed to dial and configuration file was incorrectly modified. Expected Results: redhat-config-network shouldn't damage my wvdial.conf file ! :-) Additional info:
Should be fixed with version 1.3.16
