Unfortunately that's as far as I get. The PPP console shows a "write: no such process" and the debug console shows a number of dots in the last line, presumably process indicators, that do not increase in number after filling about a third of the screen (which is when I first checked). Any ideas? TIA, -- -- Lucky Green <mailto:shamrock@netcom.com> PGP encrypted mail preferred.
