Hi, Copying files like that is definitively not a good idea. I don't know wvdial very much but I think that it put informations in other files. So: 1st idea: Why don't you configure wvdial with tools provided by Debian (on installation) 2nd idea: Better use pppconfig to get rid of wvdial that I don't like. So 1) pppconfig for configuration 2) pon to dial-up 3) poff to cut the line Don't forget to subscribe the user for dialout and dip groups. Francois
