[ Ubuntu-BD ] Ubuntu 6.06.1 LTS

Sun Dec 9 10:14:14 GMT 2007

Great! I must appreciate all your efforts to help a 'not-so-familiar-with-penguin' type guy :-)

1. To download ... well, there could not be any internet connection at the first place, and, establishing a connection is the problem.

2. according to Tarin, well, I could not find any such tool (s) in my CD... sorry, I stand to be corrected if I am wrong.

3. At last, if a new version is available with ALL required tools of the trade - yes: problem could be solved. Right?

Regarding 'Training', well, Russel (and associates) can arrange a training workshop/seminar (paid participation basis) in future; it will help everyone.

Thank you all again. 
Best regards,

Abdullah Rakeeb

>> sudo pppoeconf

It lets you configure Boradband/Password based Internet Connections 

also you might find a Graphical configuration tool for ppp in the Package manager , just search with ppp keyword  

sorry for the late reply, :p
