Description Filepra 2004-01-20 18:31:54 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1.94)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

Our local dial-up internet provider charges the costs in way that cannot be exactly expressed by current .rst file, so the price shown by kppp is sometimes not 100% correct. 

The provider charges at least 120 s of every connection even if it lasts 20 s, for example. To describe this, I cannot use "flat_init_costs" rule, because it doesn't look at the current time, but the actual price of those 2 minutes differs depending on workday/weekend and day/night.

Adding new rule like "minimum_connection_time" (similar to "minimum_costs") would do the think.

This project is unfortunately no longer maintained.

If a new maintainer wants to step up and take care, the project is archived here:

https://invent.kde.org/unmaintained/kppp

You can just clone it in your private namespace on invent.kde.org and if you have started to work on it and fixed/implemented something get it reviewed and the project unarchived.

Sorry for the inconveniences.
