I can connect manually via 'term', but, cannot 'dial'. When I try 'dial', there is no access to the modem. I get messages that say ppp is trying to dial and then dial failed. Here are my ppp.* files: ################################################################### # # /etc/ppp.conf # # 970715 tomdean - initial version # ################################################################### # # executed every time ppp starts # default: set device /dev/cuaa1 set speed 115200 set parity none set timeout 0 disable lqr deny lqr set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5\"\"AT&FX4&B1&C1&D2&H1&K3&R2 OK-AT-OK\\dATDT\\T TIMEOUT 60 CONNECT" set redial 3 10 # # isp config # isp: set phone "6980088" # my isp requires a '#' as the first char of the user name set login "TIMEOUT 5 ogin:-\\r-ogin:#<my user name> word:<my password>" set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0 netmask 0xffffff00 delete ALL add 0 0 10.0.0.2 ################################################################### # # /etc/ppp.linkup # # 970715 tomdean - initial version # ################################################################### # # tell ppp what to do when he makes a connection # MYADDR: delete ALL add 0 0 HISADDR Any ideas?
