I've read all the threads on this subject here recently and tried
following the examples, but I *still* can't get this to work.  Maybe
someone could point out what's wrong with my setup?  Here's the current
state of my files (been trying so many variations this morning my head is
spinning!):

/etc/ppp/ppp.conf:

default:
 set device /dev/cuaa0
 set speed 115200
 disable lqr
 deny lqr
 set phone 5224941
 set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \"\" ATE1Q0 OK-AT-OK
\\dATDT\\T TIMEOUT 30 CONNECT"
 set login "TIMEOUT 5 login:-\\r-login: conrads word: xxxx known dumb
slip dppp"

neosoft:
 set ifaddr 0 0 netmask 0xffffff00
 set redial 4 10
 dial
 set timeout 0

ondemand:
 set phone 5224941
 set login "TIMEOUT 5 login:-\\r-login: conrads word: xxxx known dumb
slip dppp"
 set timeout 120
 set ifaddr 0 206.27.160.244/0 255.255.255.0
 add 0 0 HISADDR

/etc/ppp/ppp.linkup:

MYADDR:
 add 0 0 HISADDR

ondemand:
 delete ALL
 add 0 0 HISADDR

Some ppp info from this session:

PPP ON dolphin> show route

PPP ON dolphin> show ipcp
IPCP [Opend]
 his side: 206.27.165.185, 2d0f00
 my  side: 206.27.165.186, 2d0f00
connected: 1069 secs, idle: 144 secs

Defaults:
 My Address:  0.0.0.0/0
 His Address: 0.0.0.0/0
 Negotiation: 255.255.255.255/32

My currently assigned address is 206.27.165.186, with 206.27.165.185 as
the default gateway (this is how it always works on Neosoft; MYADDR-1 =
gateway).

I dial into Neosoft's server at 206.27.160.244.  Addresses are assigned in
the range 206.27.165.xxx.  I've disabled routed in sysconfig.  I've tried
using the "delete ALL/add 0 0 HISADDR" in ppp.conf, in ppp.linkup and in
both.

At present, ondemand won't even dial at all.  Interactive works fine.  I
can't figure this out.

HELP!!!
