flopped need to try something else

Hi eddy

Please check this AntiDialer for Sify Broadband just use this on your ubuntu and it should help

if you still face any problem while connecting then please call sify care and tell them that you are using linux and they will ask your kernel version to make changes in your connection profile and within few hours it will be fine
to check kernel version you can go to terminal and type uname -r

still if you need any more help please post

Do i need Alien To install that ?

I have no idea how to install this Anti-Dialer App smoothvibes ...... it seems no guide is present in the site

yes you need alien for this and just need to install it as normal package as we install on linux

I cannot install Alien as my ubuntu is not connected to internet

Guess, Ubuntu is pretty much useless without net connection.

Hmmmm

N00bUntu

Pingu Mod i can use Internet in ubuntu ,..... but for that i have to login to Windows .... log into sify then restart without looging out ... and login to Ibex ...


I can do it a few times only before i loose my patience ...... R u free now ... cause i ll log in to Ibex with net connection and u help me ?

OK! Go ahead. I will try. One time will be enough.

Ok vish and vibes

Loging into ubuntu

sure mate i can try my best to help you but i am work right now so may be will not be able to navigate properly coz don't have ubuntu at work... at work we got some windows, doors, apple, mango and banana LOL :lol:

Sure, shout when you are there. Smoothie can give instructions. And I might be able to help with navigation. I am using Ubuntu now.

Stupid question

How to login to root without setting root password

you can use terminal and use sudo command for the same

like this u mean

sudo psswd root ?

hmmm yeah understood

1 more thing ....... when i logged in to Ubuntu it disconnected my Sify Lan [ and so the internet too] ......... Gonna try again

sure you ubuntu is very much similar to your previous OS
you have already used Linux OS so i don't think you will find it difficult to work on ubuntu

No its quiet diff actually ........... In Fedora Root is always enabled even in GUI ....


Anyways i have isloated the error

The Broadband client [ of sify ] has installed succesfully but when i execute sifyconnect it says

Some linked libraries are missing or some thing ..... I think need to install something

You need to have alien before hand

TO download alien type "sudo apt-get install alien"

Then by alien convert the rpm packages into deb

Download the tar.gz file form http://202.144.65.70:8090/

then go to terminal

type tar -xvf sify_bbclient-3.0.tar

go to terminal

there navigate to the folder to which it is extracted
For instance you have done it on the Desktop

Then

open terminal

Type
1) "cd Desktop"
2) "cd sify_bbclient-3.0"
3) "sudo ./install.sh"


This will install the client

Then type in "sifyconnect"

and this will start the sify client



try the above one..

this is what i was trying to do

when error occured

@mahe

hey i think u dont need alien to convert to deb as it is in non rpm format already ?

have nt slept from yest 1:00am..... think ll die if i dont go to bed ..... pingu mod vishnu and mahe pls hang around tomoro eve .... i ll be needing ur help

Yeah! I will be here. This might help.

To Install Alien.

Code:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install alien

For converting .rpm to .deb. Copy .rpm file to desktop.

Change directory to desktop

Code:

cd ~/Desktop

Code:

sudo alien -k name-of-rpm-file.rpm

To install .deb.

Code:

sudo dpkg -i name-of-deb-file.deb

ohh vishnu... you are smart man

I still cannot connect to internet let me explain


Sify Client has been Successfully installed But

1.)Whenever I log Into Ubuntu It automatically disconnects my Lan Network [which connects me to Sify Server]

2)After installation I try to run Sudo Sifyconnect and get this error message

sifyconnect: error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Please Check the instruction from this site and explain to me what i have not done ?
SifyClient

I don't know how sify works. But try this. msify - Google Code. You can use a USB drive to transfer file between the OS.

for the libssl problem this might fix it:

Code:

sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libssl.so.0.9.8 /usr/lib/libssl.so.4
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8 /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.4
