Description: Knet (formerly Kdsl) is a frontend for pppd which allows you to quickly and easily setup your PC with an Internet Account. Development is progressing, and currently Knet offers DSL support for PPPoE connections, and Dialup. PPPoA Support might work, but is untested. If you can become a tester, please Email us!
** THIS IS A BETA RELEASE ** Please report any bugs or problems.Last changelog:
For Suse Users compile with ./configure --prefix=/opt/kde3
For Redhat / Fedora users compile with ./configure --prefix=/usr
version 0.6 - for KDE-3.4 - Renamed to KNet - New User Interface - new Modem Configuration tools complete with modem scanning. - New script editor that can be used for internet connections not directly supported by Knet (e.g. PPTP connections) - Knet no longer creates special configuration files. Everything is done internally. - Log window now works for Dialup Connections.
version 0.5 (Has been tested on KDE 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3) - Fixed compilation issues with GCC-3.4, and other compilation issues on some distros. - Added a real-time Statistics Page (see screenshot above) - Fixed Notification window to always popup around the system tray icon - Dock Icon is always shown, and Connection and Disconnections can take place from the dock icon. - Worked on some KDE compliancy in the Dialog Boxes - Added a Scheduler to automatically Start and stop your internet connection at any set time.
This looks very promising indeed, I hope it matures and becomes a "single-window" for doing any ISP/internet connection setup on KDE/Linux!
I have a couple of questions:
1) Can I have a system level knetrc for ALL the users on a particular machine?
2) How do we use the script inteface, if you could post a sample config script that has been used before, I can have a look and build more based on it.
Cheers,
hi there,
sorry for the slow reply. Firstly, at the moment, you cannot set up a general knetrc file system wide.
Secondly, the script editor is used to pass pppd scripts to pppd to establish a connection. The best way to learn how to connect using pppd from the commandline is to read its manpage. Perhaps down the line I will show some examples for it. Just haven't had much time to work on it the last 12 months.
Thankyou for the feedback
Works great on CentOS 4.2.
Thank you very much. I live in India where BSNL is one of the leading DSL service provider. KNet just works.
Why not have it in KDE main itself...
Hello, and thankyou.
Glad to hear it is working well for you. The reason I have not tried get this program included in KDE is because I simply don't have the time anymore to put a lot of effort into the program. I will port the program to KDE4 when an Alpha Release is made available, but because of my constant travelling commitments for work, I just can't be relied upon to meet KDE's release cycles.
Also, there's a lot that still needs to be done to make it work on all systems (i.e It doesnt work for everyone smoothly), so really it's not ready to be included into the KDE tree.
I am a Slackware user.
After upgrading to Slack 10.2 (kde 3.4.2 - ppp-2.4.4b1 - rp-pppoe-3.6 - tcpip-0.17) Kdsl stops working.
Looking for a newer version I discovered KNet.
I compiled and installed it but when i click on DLS button (after entering Setup form) the application crashes. Any other button seems to work correctly.
This in the backtrace:

So now I cannot connect using a GUI (i need a GUI because other users of the workstation are not able to connect using command line).
Regards
I can't connect with my DSL (pppoe) link as a normal user. But when I login as root, I can connect. What configurations do I have to make in order to make normal user connect?
I downloaded a debian package and installed it. Anything wrong with the package itself?
the following is the error messages:

---------------------------------
it looks like that the debian package does not give the correct permissions to the knet files to make it work. Make sure the Knet binary is SETUID. You can do this from the command line in the directory where knet is installed: chmod +4755 knet
I hope this helps.
I have compiled knet from the sources and use kubuntu. I did the chmod
-rwsrws--x 1 root root 597693 2005-09-25 23:41 knet
I can launch Knet but when connecting, there is this error:
"Couldn't find interface ppp0:...."
Hi, first off, thanks for this great app.
I compiled it and installed it on kubuntu without an issue.
However, I'm having one problem.
I normally am connected via a router and so setup my eth0 to use the default route 192.168.0.1
Now, if I use knet, I can connect without a problem, however, the default route stays the same, so that I can't really use my dsl-connection until I run "route add default dev ppp0" as root.
This of course somehow defeats the purpose of knet, as I want to use it in the first place to get away from having to use the command line when connecting to dsl.
Any ideas how this issue could be resolved?
Currently, router support is in its early stages in KNet because I do not have a router to test it with. However, if you're able to work with me a little to add the support you need, I will certainly do so. Please let me know.. I am working hard to get another release out soon, and it would be good to include this in the next release.
same problem, but I do not use a router. See my rote before connecting:
192.168.2.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
default . 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0
(192.168.2.1 is a dsl-router which is not in use=acts as a switch only)
route after I am connected with Knet:
217.0.116.49 * 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 ppp0
192.168.2.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
default 192.168.2.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0
Default route is 192.168.2.1 but should be 217.0.116.49 (my ISP)
Any idea?
I tried Knet
first the unstable package for debian, then self-compiled. however, clicking on the DSL button makes a SIGSEGV in the program.
My provider provides me with a scriptpackage, which dials in itself. Maybe you could add support to that (Name it "External", similar to "script", but executing bash-commands, having an icon and so on).
The good thing is, Knet finds my internet connection if it is already started up. I could use "Script", but "DSL" crashes the program.
so I use the dialin scripts from my provider (which are quite okay), and I can start up knet afterwards having it "Monitoring" the active connection (which I always have to click :D)
Please add the "External" ability, to execute bash-scripts for "connection" and "disconnect" manually, if possible.
I dream about the day, where Linux users can set up their pptp/pppoe/pppd/pppoa connections like windows user do, with 3 clicks. knet is on the way to that, dont give up.
Hi,
Firstly, thank-you for your feedback and encouragement.
At the moment, I haven't got anyone willing to test the program to give me feedback of success or failures, and its hard for me to implement different connections when all I have is a basic ADSL connection to test with. If you, or anyone is interested in helping make DSL support the features (and protocols) you want, I am more than happy to work with you to get the result that can benefit a lot of people. But unless I get some help (does not have to be a programmer) not much will change. Testers is really all I need.
hi...i'm in trouble.

I need to know more about your system. What distro are you using? What version of KDE you using (and even version of QT) and also what version of gcc you are using.
Knet was written for KDE3.4, but has compiled and worked succesfully on a SUSE system using KDE3.3. I suspect that Knet will not compile on older versions of KDE because of a change in some of KDE's libraries.
Thanks.
Its an odd problem because its complaining about KDE's header files...
two things to try...
The first thing:
go to the knet directory and type the following:
make distclean
autoconf
automake
./configure --prefix=/usr
make
make install
The second thing you could possibly try is upgrading gcc to gcc-3.4.1
Other than this, I really dont know why its failing on compilation.
you have to install the X development paackages. They should be on your Suse CD's.
You will probably also have to install all the KDE-devel packages if they're not already installed.
It would be good. Not sure how to implement it though, because other programs would need to make a DCOP call to say 'I need internet' and then start KNet. I know KPPP had some DCOP calls in it, so I will see if its already implemented in KPPP and adapt it here.

Sorry! KNet (and Kdsl too) doesn't work with ppp-2.4.4b1. Rolling back to ppp-2.4.3 everything works fine! Bye
News: if you want to use ppp-2.4.4b1 just make a symlink in /usr/lib/pppd called 2.4.4 pointing the directory 2.4.4b1 Bye L. B.
I can't connect with my DSL (pppoe) link as a normal user. But when I login as root, I can connect. What configurations do I have to make in order to make normal user connect? I downloaded a debian package and installed it. Anything wrong with the package itself? the following is the error messages: ------------------------------------- Qt: Locales not supported on X server knet: helperPid: 3512 knet: sendRequest: trying to send msg type 6 knet: sendRequest: sent message knet: recvResponse(): waiting for message Opener: received SetSecret knet: recvResponse(): received message knet: response.status: 0 knet: sendRequest: trying to send msg type 6 knet: sendRequest: sent message knet: recvResponse(): waiting for message Opener: received SetSecret knet: recvResponse(): received message knet: response.status: 0 knet: started if timeout timer with 30000 knet: pppd plugin /usr/lib/pppd/2.4.3/rp-pppoe.so eth0 defaultroute noauth usepeerdns hide-password maxfail 0 mru 1492 mtu 1492 lcp-echo-failure 0 lcp-echo-interval 0 -detach user "lh23602@xmlan" knet: sendRequest: trying to send msg type 9 knet: sendRequest: sent message knet: recvResponse(): waiting for message Opener: received ExecPPPDaemon Kernel supports ppp alright. pppd: using the plugin option requires root privilege received unexpected SIGCHLD.

it looks like that the debian package does not give the correct permissions to the knet files to make it work. Make sure the Knet binary is SETUID. You can do this from the command line in the directory where knet is installed: chmod +4755 knet I hope this helps.
I have compiled knet from the sources and use kubuntu. I did the chmod -rwsrws--x 1 root root 597693 2005-09-25 23:41 knet I can launch Knet but when connecting, there is this error: "Couldn't find interface ppp0:...."
Hi, first off, thanks for this great app. I compiled it and installed it on kubuntu without an issue. However, I'm having one problem. I normally am connected via a router and so setup my eth0 to use the default route 192.168.0.1 Now, if I use knet, I can connect without a problem, however, the default route stays the same, so that I can't really use my dsl-connection until I run "route add default dev ppp0" as root. This of course somehow defeats the purpose of knet, as I want to use it in the first place to get away from having to use the command line when connecting to dsl. Any ideas how this issue could be resolved?
Currently, router support is in its early stages in KNet because I do not have a router to test it with. However, if you're able to work with me a little to add the support you need, I will certainly do so. Please let me know.. I am working hard to get another release out soon, and it would be good to include this in the next release.
same problem, but I do not use a router. See my rote before connecting: 192.168.2.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 default . 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 (192.168.2.1 is a dsl-router which is not in use=acts as a switch only) route after I am connected with Knet: 217.0.116.49 * 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 ppp0 192.168.2.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 default 192.168.2.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 Default route is 192.168.2.1 but should be 217.0.116.49 (my ISP) Any idea?
I tried Knet first the unstable package for debian, then self-compiled. however, clicking on the DSL button makes a SIGSEGV in the program. My provider provides me with a scriptpackage, which dials in itself. Maybe you could add support to that (Name it "External", similar to "script", but executing bash-commands, having an icon and so on). The good thing is, Knet finds my internet connection if it is already started up. I could use "Script", but "DSL" crashes the program. so I use the dialin scripts from my provider (which are quite okay), and I can start up knet afterwards having it "Monitoring" the active connection (which I always have to click :D) Please add the "External" ability, to execute bash-scripts for "connection" and "disconnect" manually, if possible. I dream about the day, where Linux users can set up their pptp/pppoe/pppd/pppoa connections like windows user do, with 3 clicks. knet is on the way to that, dont give up.
Hi, Firstly, thank-you for your feedback and encouragement. At the moment, I haven't got anyone willing to test the program to give me feedback of success or failures, and its hard for me to implement different connections when all I have is a basic ADSL connection to test with. If you, or anyone is interested in helping make DSL support the features (and protocols) you want, I am more than happy to work with you to get the result that can benefit a lot of people. But unless I get some help (does not have to be a programmer) not much will change. Testers is really all I need.

I need to know more about your system. What distro are you using? What version of KDE you using (and even version of QT) and also what version of gcc you are using. Knet was written for KDE3.4, but has compiled and worked succesfully on a SUSE system using KDE3.3. I suspect that Knet will not compile on older versions of KDE because of a change in some of KDE's libraries.
hi, i'm using : Conectiva Linux 10 kde-3.4 qt-3.3.4 gcc-3.3.3
Thanks. Its an odd problem because its complaining about KDE's header files... two things to try... The first thing: go to the knet directory and type the following: make distclean autoconf automake ./configure --prefix=/usr make make install The second thing you could possibly try is upgrading gcc to gcc-3.4.1 Other than this, I really dont know why its failing on compilation.
Hi, Great job. Debian Unstable package (knet-0.6beta1) available at http://pacotesdeb.codigolivre.org.br
Thank-you. :)
Hi, on Suse 9.3 with KDE 3.4 the installation stops after ./configure with the error "Can`t find X includes"
you have to install the X development paackages. They should be on your Suse CD's. You will probably also have to install all the KDE-devel packages if they're not already installed.
Dial on demand would be cool, whenever an application wants to access the Internet, KNet should pop up.
It would be good. Not sure how to implement it though, because other programs would need to make a DCOP call to say 'I need internet' and then start KNet. I know KPPP had some DCOP calls in it, so I will see if its already implemented in KPPP and adapt it here.
