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.

Saving settings:
http://damnsmalllinux.org/wiki....ings.3F

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
