Version: (using KDE KDE 3.1.1a) Installed from: Mandrake RPMs OS: Linux Please, provide automatic CBCP (windows) callback support. I've found a lot of articles about how to use it using scripts. After connecting (on re-call) it prints my remote ip, but I can't ping anything (either using hostname or ip). I use it (on windows) because I must pay $0.5 per hour only for telephone communication
What do you mean by "callback"? Does this program you're referring to exist in any of the platforms Kppp runs on? Can't you do what you want with pppd's ip-up scripts?
Callback is when you call privder, it disconnects and provider calls you. So you must not pay for telephone communication (cause call is incoming)
hint: try to integrate chestnut-dialer.sourceforge.net (http://chestnut-dialer.sourceforge.net/index-ru.html)
who need this? who need kppp?

This feature is very, very neccessary. I use only callback providers because I don't have extra money. And I do not want to call using scripts. This feature will help users who do not familiar with script writing.
OK. Patch is in. Thanks a lot. Hope you get around trying it out before KDE 3.3 gets released. Had to make 1-2 minor modifications needed because of another patch that went in shortly before. Thanks again.
