Dial2Net

Dial2net is a handy application that simplifies the process of configuring a PPP (dialup) connection for Linux users. It supports both PAP and CHAP protocols, making it a versatile tool for accessing the internet. This software is specifically designed for users new to Linux who are looking to set up a PPP connection to access the internet. The goal of this software is to provide an easy-to-use application that effectively gets the job done.

What sets Dial2net apart from other applications is its unique features. Firstly, it allows users to choose their ISP from a list, making the process simpler and reducing the need for manual configuration. Secondly, it includes an application called Lan2Net, which sets up a Local Area Network to share an internet connection. Finally, it offers a range of useful tools to make daily use of a PPP connection more manageable.

After the initial installation, simply run "dial2net" to dial out and "dial2net -d" to disconnect. If you need to reconfigure Dial2net for any reason, run "dial2net -s" for setup mode.

The latest release of Dial2net includes an autoredial function and minor bug fixes. Overall, Dial2net is a valuable application for Linux users looking to set up a PPP connection with ease.
