Enabling Domain Name Service
Before you can enable Domain Name Service (DNS), your ISP must provide
the following information:
■ The domain name of the subnetwork
■ The IP addresses of your name servers
Some ISPs set DNS information automatically (ask your Service Provider
for details). If yours does, you can skip to “Completing the Setup” on page
93.
1. Edit the file
/etc/nsswitch.conf.
2. For “hosts,” type
files dns and press Enter.
3. Create the file
/etc/resolv.conf.
4. For “domain,” type the domain name (for example, abc.company.com)
and press
Enter.
5. For the first “nameserver,” type the primary DNS (for example,
123.123.123.123) and press
Enter.
6. For the second “nameserver,” type the secondary DNS (for example,
122.122.122.122) and press
Enter.
7. Press
Enter twice to invoke the changes.

Completing the Setup
1. From the command line, “touch” the chat script, in this case
/etc/opt/SUMWconn/ppp/script/gs_packet_data.scr.
This creates an empty script file. If the file already exists, open it with
a text editor and make sure that it contains no lines of text.
2. Check the
/etc/opt/SUMWconn/ppp/link.conf file and make
sure the speed is set to 38400.
The speed for the PPP client must match the baud rate on your
Tri-Mode Phone (38400 bps is the phone’s default). If the speeds are not
the same, your computer cannot communicate with the Tri-Mode
Phone.
