Modem Dialer in C

[kolichina_s_s]

Hi,

I am trying to connect to the Internet from within my C program, i am using my 56k(Old) modem(External). Can any one please tell me if there is any library that i can use for dialing and disconnection purpose.

My friend suggested me to use WvDial but i couldn't find library for WvDial. in fact i am new to linux and i dont know where and how i can find these libraries.

when i typed "man wvdial" it did show the help of wvdial. This means wvdail is present on my machine but i am not sure how to use this.

or is there any other good library that i can use ? Please suggest.

Please help me with this ?

Thanks in advance

It's been a while since I did anything with modems but don't you just open the com port the modem is on and us AT commands?
