NAMEqADSL - Auto-login & keep-alive for Internet connections.SYNOPSISqadsl [-h] [-c conffile] [-p pidfile] [-loPsdvV]DESCRIPTIONFrustrated about having to "log in" to your paid Internet connection?qadsl is a small utility that automates the login process to Telia, COMHEM, Tiscali and other Internet Service Providers, ISPs. It features a keep-alive daemon that periodically connects to your ISP ensuring that your connection to the Internet are not logged out all of a sudden. qadsl works for any type of connection where your ISP has put a login server in your way. OPTIONSqadsl options are available in traditional POSIX one letter options prefixed with a single '-' or the new popular --long-options style.
USAGEFirst setup your qadsl.conf file with the information you have received from your ISP. It should be at least the name (or IP) of their login server, your login ID and and password.Different providers have setup their login servers differently. See the sample qadsl.conf file included in this package for help on setting up qadsl for your ISP. If you have problems connecting the flags --verbose and --debug are really useful tools that let you see all the interactions between qadsl and the login server. However, please note that when the login daemon has started you will not see anything more on your screen. Instead you have to consult the system logfiles. On a Debian system the file /var/log/daemon.log is where qadsl logs go. FILES
