Where is the equivalent of /etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ directory in Ubuntu?
I am trying to set up a usb gsm Modem. I can't find /etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/
directory to put the driver configuration file into.
In Ubuntu where can i find this directory? I want to put /etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-Verizon_USB
file wherever it needs to go.
The contents are:
ONBOOT=no
USERCTL=yes
PEERDNS=yes
TYPE=Modem
DEVICE=ppp0
BOOTPROTO=dialup
CCP=on
PC=on
AC=on
BSDCOMP=on
VJ=on
VJCCOMP=on
LINESPEED=115200
MODEMPORT=/dev/cellphone
PROVIDER=VerizonQNC
DEFROUTE=yes
PERSIST=no
PAPNAME=qnc
WVDIALSECT=Verizon_USB
MODEMNAME=Modem_USB
DEMAND=no

This is an area where the Debian and Red Hat families really differ. Network interfaces in Debian/Ubuntu are not defined by files in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts
(as you have noticed, there isn't even a /etc/sysconfig
directory), but by /etc/network/interfaces
. To learn more, check out the manpage online or run man interfaces
on your Debian/Ubuntu system.
