Thanks for all the help folks. I have figured out what the problem is. It was not my chatscripts. It was not /etc/ppp/peers/netcom It was something really stupid on my part. My modem was an internal one connected to com3 (/dev/ttyS3). The IRQ was being set wrong. I unplugged the card, changed the jumpers on the card to diable PnP and set its IRQ to an unused one (10), rebooted, ran setserial and that solved the problem. Just thout this info had to be archived in some mailing list for people who might come across a similar problem in the future. Thaths -- "I can't believe you didn't invite me.
