configuration script for bpalogin.

NAME

bpalogin-configure - configuration script for bpalogin.

SYNOPSIS

bpalogin-configure [CONFFILE]

DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents briefly the bpalogin-configure command. It was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

bpalogin-configure interactively prompts for settings (username, password, etc.) and updates CONFFILE (usually /etc/bpalogin.conf) accordingly.

CONFFILE contains the password and should therefore not be world readable.

bpalogin is an open source login client for the Telstra Bigpond Cable Network in Australia. It is neither written nor supported by Telstra or Bigpond. It is both simple to use and stable. Unlike the standard client it does not crash, reconnects when there is a network problem, is available for most operating systems, can run as a service on WinNT/2k/xp and comes with source.
