Ok I have the following files: crossyourfingers:/home/kent# cd /etc/ppp/peers/ crossyourfingers:/etc/ppp/peers# ls -al total 8 drwxr-s--- 2 root dip 1024 Jan 12 05:39 . drwx------ 5 root root 1024 Dec 15 10:23 .. -rw-r----- 1 root dip 576 Dec 9 04:00 binary.net -rw-r--r-- 1 root dip 576 Jan 12 05:20 mpool -rw-r--r-- 1 root dip 570 Jan 12 05:07 mpool~ -rw-r----- 1 root dip 574 Dec 15 10:22 provider -rw-r----- 1 root dip 489 Jun 18 1998 provider.old -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 19 May 16 1998 wvdial This is what the /binary.net file looks like: crossyourfingers:/etc/ppp/peers# cat binary.net # This file was generated by pppconfig.

I have these files: crossyourfingers:/etc/ppp/peers# cd /etc/chatscripts/ crossyourfingers:/etc/chatscripts# ls -al total 10 drwxr-s--- 2 root dip 1024 Jan 12 03:31 . drwxr-xr-x 63 root root 4096 Jan 12 01:49 .. -rw-r----- 1 root dip 117 Jan 12 03:31 binary.net -rw-r----- 1 root dip 117 Jan 12 03:29 binary.net~ -rw-r--r-- 1 root dip 116 Jan 12 05:05 mpool -rw-r--r-- 1 root dip 0 Jan 11 13:34 mpool~ -rw-r----- 1 root dip 116 Jan 12 03:30 provider -rw-r----- 1 root dip 116 Jan 12 03:26 provider~ The /binary.net file looks like this: crossyourfingers:/etc/chatscripts# cat binary.net ABORT BUSY ABORT "NO CARRIER" ABORT VOICE ABORT "NO DIALTONE" ABORT "NO ANSWER" "" ATZ OK ATDT4848144 CONNECT \d\c The /mpool file is the same but the dial up number is different. I tried using "pon mpool" and nothing happened. So I thought I would try and move /etc/ppp/peers/provider to my home directory to see what would happen and I got the following message: /usr/sbin/pppd: Can't open options file /etc/ppp/peers/provider no such file or directory exists. I then looked at the /usr/sbin/pppd file and I think it is a binary file it has few characters I can read. So what I am thinking is somehow I need to get /usr/sbin/pppd to be able to read /etc/ppp/peers/binary.net and /etc/ppp/peers/mpool. I'm stumped again. Kent
