From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20021003 Description of problem: redhat-config-network-1.1.20-1 If I change the provider name and number in a PPP config, then click on "Apply", it doesn't update /etc/wvdial.cfg nor does it update /etc/ppp/peers/ppp0 Consequently, when I activate ppp0, it calls the old config number. If I remove the /etc/ppp/peers/ppp0 file, it will re-create it with the correct provider name.. But I have to remove /etc/wvdial.conf and delete my ppp0 entry and create the ppp0 entry again to correct the /etc/wvdial.conf file. So, to effectively change ISP, you have to delete both files, and the ppp0 entry from the Network configuration, and start again. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.create modem/ppp0 entry 2.apply and activate. 3.deactivate and edit the ppp0 entry and change provider name and number 4. apply and activate... Actual Results: It dials the old number Expected Results: It should have correctly updated the /etc/wvdial.conf and peers/ppp0 files with the new provider settings. Additional info:
Same for me... although I had not tackled the /etc/ppp/peers/ppp0 removal trick to get the correct number dialed. I have installed phoebe's latest redhat-config-network and will try if things get better or worse 8-)
