interfaces pon poff wvdial

/etc/networking/interfaces

As a full Debian/Ubuntu nerd, I use "/etc/networking/interfaces" to setup my network. But as far as I have Two different modems to connect with, I wondered how to make them work with "/etc/networking/interfaces". I found.

ppp

To connect with "ppp", I type "pon bluenet". To use "/etc/networking/interfaces" with it:

 iface ppp0 inet ppp provider bluenet

wvdial

To connect with wvdial, I type "wvdial orange". To use "/etc/networking/interfaces" with it:

 iface ppp0 inet wvdial provider orange

npm run build base-href

Using NPM to specify base-href When building an Angular application, people usually use "ng" and pass arguments to that invocation. Typically, when wanting to hard code "base-href" in "index.html", one will issue: ng build --base-href='https://ngx.rktmb.org/foo' I used to build my angular apps through Bamboo or Jenkins and they have a "npm" plugin. I got the habit to build the application with "npm run build" before deploying it. But the development team once asked me to set the "--base-href='https://ngx.rktmb.org/foo'" parameter. npm run build --base-href='https://ngx.rktmb.org/foo did not set the base href in indext.html After looking for a while, I found https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/issues/13560 where it says: You need to use −− to pass arguments to npm scripts. This did the job! The command to issue is then: npm run build -- --base-href='https://ngx.rktmb.org/foo&
