	I'm running it in 1.1, but I can't imagine it being different. 
This is my dialup script:



#!/bin/sh

NUMBER="*70,xxxxxxx"

while :
do
/usr/sbin/pppd tty02 115200 defaultroute : \
connect "/usr/sbin/chat -v '' 'ATZ' OK atdt$NUMBER \
CONNECT ''" +ua /etc/ppp/pap.smear -detach \

sleep 5
done


(I hang up for no one)

	Note, /etc/ppp/pap.smear looks like this (two lines)

username
passwd

	Replace, of course, with your own.
