NoSiD

No-dashi Simple Dialer

WTF is that?

No-dashi dialer aka NoSiD is a very simple bash script. It's yet another dialer, but without any functions you need. It simply dials!

Why not using KPPP?: It's too big, slow and eats lots of memory
Why not using wvdial?: In fact, wvdial is what you want to use. Forget about NoSiD. You must have mispelled an URL in your browser, how else could you find such a stupid program like NoSiD?

History

Once upon a time, I complained that everything in Linux is very slow. Guys from linux.org.ru gave me some invaluable advice, such as using *term instead of KDE's Konsole, and one of them, who calls himself "no-dashi", suggested a s[a,i]mple script to replace kppp with. You can find it below under "NoSiD v0.1".

Features

NoSiD has two features:

It can dial your ISP's phone number, and even connect to the Internet!

It supports unlimited number of accounts

NoSiD guide

So, what should you do in order to get NoSiD to work?

Become root and type "rm -rf /" followed by <Enter>. Just kidding :)

Become root. Not kidding this time :)

Open your favourite editor and copy/paste this script

Save it somewhere under any name you like, e.g. in /usr/local/bin/dial

Run chmod +x /usr/local/bin/dial

Create and edit ~/.dialrc file. It will contain your accounts' data. Format of this file is as follows:

user[account_name]=your_user_name tel[account_name]=your_ISP_telephone pass[account_name]=your_password

For example, here's my .dialrc:

	tel=P269998
	user=a260404@rol.ru
	pass=szhoinai
	
	telrol=P689292
	userrol=rol
	passrol=rol
	
	telcredit=P8,22780200
	usercredit=uoy_kcuf
	passcredit=hctib

So, if I will simply run "dial", NoSiD will connect using phone number "P269998" (P means pulse dialing) and username "a260404@rol.ru". If I'll add a parameter to the command, e.g. "dial credit", it will connect using another account. When you want to disconnect, press Ctrl+C.

Now, go get yourself wvdial, install it and remove NoSiD. Have fun,
