Hi all
This is a post aseembled from a number of other posts on this forum and outside
Here are the steps :
1) Configure IP settings
whatever staic ip give to you.
ip address : 10.30.81.172
mask : 255.255.255.0
gateway : 10.30.81.1
primary dns : 202.144.66.6
secondary dns : 202.144.10.50
2) Check connectivity to gateway
[root@localhost ~]# ping 10.30.81.1
PING 10.30.81.1 (10.30.81.1) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 10.30.81.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=30 time=1.56 ms
64 bytes from 10.30.81.1: icmp_seq=2 ttl=30 time=1.34 ms
--- 10.30.81.1 ping statistics ---
2 packets transmitted, 2 received, 0% packet loss, time 1005ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 1.342/1.451/1.560/0.109 ms

3) Ge the latest Sify client for linux from http://202.144.65.70:8090/downloaddialer.php

Perform necessary steps given there
3.1 : Install openssl
3.2 : install RPM
RPM link was broken in my case .So i got the sify_bbclient-3.0.tar.gz

tar -xvf sify_bbclient-3.0.tar.gz
cd sify_bbclient-3.0
./install.sh
sifyconnect

4) last command may give error
shared library "libssl.so.4" not found
Refer https://broadband.forum/sify-broadband-alternative-clients-forum/13676-sify-broadband-version-3-ubuntu-kubuntu/
by Loner Tech
cd /usr/lib
sudo ln -s libcrypto.so.0.9.8 libcrypto.so.4
sudo ln -s libssl.so.0.9.8 libssl.so.4

#sifyconnect
and hopefully the login window will pop up
All the best

Here is the Solution , A Browser Based Login


All Sify Internet User,

I had fight with Sify on the Dialer Installation Issues in Linux and the result is that they have bowed to customers!

They have provided me a "Browser Based Login".
As it is browser based and doesn't require any platform specific software, therefore works on All Linux OS, Windows etc.
Tested on (Ubuntu 7.10, PCLinuxOS, PCLinux Gnome, Windows XP)
No Installation, No software needed!
So, no more messing up with installation is required!:thumbsup:

All Sify Users kindly try this...
