User Feedback :: Saving session in DSL
Can u please tell me in a simple way how to save before shut down from a current session in DSL Live CD.
Especially im configuring PPP using Dial up and adding Icons to desktop.
Did you read dillo? It has all the basic instructions, that's why it pops up.
I am not fully clear with the saving session given in dillo.
It mentions we need to give the directory name in filestool.lst file something.. Please tell me step wise .
What i actually need is i configured dialup using dial-up ppp tool . Now after loggin out of the session and logging on another day i need the saved configuration back.
Please tell me how can i do that.

ppp settings are stored in /opt/ppp, and .filetool.lst is a hidden file in your home directory (/home/dsl/.filetool.lst). In Emelfm, click the "H" button (or press Ctrl+h) to toggle visibility of hidden files. Midnight Commander displays them by default.
Backup is not done until you specify a partition on which to back up your files. This is the device name without the "/dev/" prefix. The backup device name is stored in /opt/.backup_device
Backup does not save sessions...it simply backs up files that are specified in .filetool.lst
