myDSL Extensions (deprecated) :: Installing the Netzero Dialer

What do you think Mikshaw? Might you do it?

Unfortunately I don't know anything about Java, either in DSL or any other distro. Only mentioned it because I saw someone at linuxquestions said that netzero needs java.
Is it a shell script? I can't find the download to test it from debian or netzero.
Is there anything special that needs to be done to get the myDSL java working?

it is just a shell script. I think it's looking for java in a certain place and there is a mozilla mention that might need to be changed to firefox..not sure

Here is the script if someone can help decipher for DSL. This would be cool to have for all those people who can't afford net access or for just having a national ISP to connect your portable DSL to.

Code Sample

#!/bin/sh

cd /opt/nzclient

cp=./lib/zcast1_6.jar:./lib/bwt300.jar

java -cp $cp -Dnz.browser=mozilla -Dnz.clientName=$0 -Dnz.RAS=./nzppp -Dnz.rasdelay=60000 -Dnz.TextFontName=SansSerif -Dnz.TextFontSize=7 -Dnz.FontName=Arial -Dnz.FontSize=9 nzcom.ZCast

Run this in a shell after installing the jre1_5_0.tar.gz, and before running the app..

PATH="$PATH:/opt/jre1_5_0/bin:."
export PATH

Then run ??
/opt/nzclient/runclient.sh ??

I got the installer, picked the numbers, etc..
No modem here to test at the moment..

**This could easily be added to the wrapper for a netzero.tar.gz**

Feedback..
