If SiFY gives any rpms of the dialer,u can convert it to .deb using alien program and install as " dpkg -i xxxx.deb".Best of LUX.

nothing works

hey pals,
Nothing is working for me.
I tried using both 'official client and also the one provided by ujjwal ie. 'sifyclient.bin'. Whenever I provide username n password to both of them, it says 'Please use the updated client'. I am using Ubuntu 5.04 and not 5.10. What to do>>>??

Unfortunately, sify has updated their authentication process in your area, and not updated their linux/mac clients :(

What you should do is phone sify and tell them that you are a linux user, and the official client is not working.

babumuchhala, that is one of the bugs of the official client, if you run it once as super user, it creates files in /tmp, and these later cannot be modified by the user. Try using "sudo" before the command, or better, use sifyclient.bin

Then warn them that you will discontinue their services if this is the way they treat you. You may have to try it a few times but they will listen to you specially if few others join you in doing so.
