| Summary : A graphical user interface arround the ppp-on/off scripts
|
Description :
Many Internet Service Providers (ISPs) have different modem pools for e.g
14.4, 28.8, 56k etc... modems. gpppwrap is a graphical user interface to
conveniently select a phone number and dial into your ISP. It may also
be used if you switch frequently between different ISPs. gpppwrap is
only a wrapper around the ppp-on/ppp-off scripts and gives you therefore
still the power and flexibility of these scripts. The gpppwrap package
contians ppp-on/ppp-off perl scripts which are Set-UID root to give
ordinary users the possibility to setup a ppp connection to the selected
phone number. gpppwrap is based on the gtk GUI libraries. This package
contains also a cgi-script called pppcontrol. You can place it on your
local webserver and use it instead of gpppwrap to switch on/off the
ppp connection. This is especially useful if you have windows clients
in the local network.
This RPM includes dnrd (domain name relay domain) which is a simple \"proxy\"
name server. It is meant to be used for home networks that can connect
to the internet using one of several ISP\'s.
