Hi , This is my first mail on linuxers@mm.ilug-bom.org.in
I have got adsl connection in my room. To activate the connection after bootup, I give command /usr/sbin/adsl-connect as root.
Is there is a way to start adsl connection automatically at the bootup? I have installed Fedora-Core 2 in my system.
Thanks in advance.
Regards, Tushar R. Gosavi

1. Create a script in /etc/init.d which runs the command /usr/sbin/adsl-connect
2. Put a softlink in the /etc/rc3.d directory to the file you created above. Name the softlink as S99adsl-connect.
Note: S stands for startup script, and the number is the sequential listing in the folder when this particular script will be executed during the boot process.
Take care, Paul Alapatt

I'd like to note that this is not only correct, it is the best set of instructions I have seen here in a while. The only thing missing is to check if there exists such a script already.

Assuming that you are refering to the ADSL from MTNL Triband. This router is always on as long as it is powered. Just set your LAN to DHCP and it should boot up automatically by getting its ip from the router.
