According to wvdial's man page, its configuration file defaults
to /etc/wvdial.config. On my Fedora 7 box, that's where it is.
If it's not there, try doing a "locate wvdial" in the shell and see
where things really are. Then you can edit it to your heart's content.
See the wvdial(1) and wvdial.config(5) man pages for details.
I used to use wvdial back before I got DSL, but that was a long time
ago and I don't remember the details. It seems to me that there was a
GUI app available for controlling it, but I can't remember the name
(sorry!). I don't think it was part of the wvdial package, though.
