Description Raghu GS 2005-11-11 07:53:25 UTC

after coniguring Dial-on-Demand,
in every boot the interface not automatically started by Kinternet,
ir must be manualy started,
without starting interface automatically then what is the purpose of Dial-on-Demand,

Comment 1 Dr. Werner Fink 2005-11-11 10:25:00 UTC

Dial-on-Demand: Any access to a remote adress should trigger a dialin.

Comment 2 Raghu GS 2005-11-11 11:43:30 UTC

i think you had'nt understand my description correctly.
first of all for triggering a dailin the interface must be started before,
else any request to remote address would fail.
Expected Behaviour is
Kinternet must automatically start the interface in every boot.

Comment 3 Arvin Schnell 2005-11-14 09:40:05 UTC

Set STARTMODE='auto' in /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-dsl0 or by
using YaST.

Actually, even setting this does not automatically start kinternet IF automatic login is selected for a given user.

Steps to reproduce:

     1. Configure kinternet to start automatically.
     2. Configure automatic login for a user (with privs to run kinternet).
     3. Restart system.

Condition:

KDE desktop initializes, but kinternet does not start. It can be manually started from the kicker.

Should be:

kinternet should start automatically.

If the user is subsequently configured NOT to automatically login, that is, if the system boots to the login screen, logs in (that same user or another one), kinternet will automatically start.

Reproduceable: Always

We do not invest further resources in kinternet.  It will be replaces
by NetworkManager.
