Dear List,
Do any of you use Sify Broadband Connection on Linux RHES 4?If anybody is using can you tell me how do u use it?
I ve got the connection from local cable operator who has given me one .exe which when installed creates one icon on desktop and when opened that application need to mention username and password to connect to the internet.
On windows i m able to use internet but i want to use on Linux.The local cable operator has denied any support on Linux.So anybody in the list can guide me plz for the same.

I'm using Sify. They have a dialler for Linux. Get that and call their customer service to enable the old protocol for you. Check this out:

This is for everyone. Nowadays some cable guys are giving alternative cable modems that have an ethernet port as the output. Talk to your cable guys for this alternative. For this they will have to replace the CAT5 cable with the coaxial RF cable.

Only if they have a CMTS in the first place, or they have an upstream which actually gives broadband over cable, as opposed to simple ethernet.
