Some help needed in perl / shell scripting
by Poonam P 04 Jun '02

04 Jun '02

Hi All, Can someone help this novice with a shamm Shell / Perl script to be executed at the prompt. I have a MySql db with TABLE=TEST FIELD=LIST RECORDs= 1pc49 6qh79 sbe59 etc. I need a script that will connect to the db and append each record to a text file till end of database. there may be simpler ways to do this, but i need a script to do this as I have further processing to do. the script can be directly executed from promtp as ./script_name Any pointers will also help. Thx in advance.

Connecting to Dishnet DSL
by Himanshu Shukla 02 Jun '02

02 Jun '02

Hi, I have been trying to get Dishnet DSL working on my Mandrake 8.2 machine. This is a USB modem supplied by Dishnet in Mumbai, and is probably a Conexant-make (as is seen in Windows). When I plug this in Linux, the power light does turn on, as in all USB devices, and on running `usbview' I can see it listed as "USB ADSL modem". But my problem is how do I connect to the net? Is there any tool available, like wvdial, that allows ADSL connections, through USB modems? If not, what are the scripts for ppp? Any specific parameters for Dishnet? Any pointers to the same will prove extremely useful. Thanks, --------- Regards, Himanshu
