I have been trying to connect to my ISP for some time but without any luck. When I use Windows I can connect without problems. Following is the script that works in Windows:
; This is a script file that demonstrates how ; to establish a PPP connection with Compuserve, ; which requires changing the port settings to ; log in. ; ; Main entry point to script ; proc main ; Set the port settings so we can wait for ; non-gibberish text. set port databits 7 set port parity even transmit "^M" waitfor "Host Name:" transmit "HOSTNAME^M" waitfor "User ID:" transmit $USERID, raw transmit "/go:pppconnect^M" waitfor "Password: " transmit $PASSWORD, raw transmit "^M" waitfor "One moment please..." ; Set the port settings back to allow successful ; negotiation. set port databits 8 set port parity none endproc I have confirmed with minicom that I need to provide a host name, next a user ID, and finally a password. I edited my /etc/chatscripts/provider to the following: ABORT BUSY ABORT "NO CARRIER" ABORT VOICE ABORT "NO DIALTONE" ABORT "NO ANSWER" "" ATZ OK ATDTPHONENUMBER CONNECT ^M "ost Name:" HOSTNAME "ser ID:" USERID "assword:" /qPASSWORD When I try to login using pon, this is what happens: Feb 26 11:07:20 uxtjp51 pppd[186]: pppd 2.3.5 started by LOGIN, uid 1000 Feb 26 11:07:21 uxtjp51 chat[187]: abort on (BUSY) Feb 26 11:07:21 uxtjp51 chat[187]: abort on (NO CARRIER) Feb 26 11:07:21 uxtjp51 chat[187]: abort on (VOICE) Feb 26 11:07:21 uxtjp51 chat[187]: abort on (NO DIALTONE) Feb 26 11:07:21 uxtjp51 chat[187]: abort on (NO ANSWER) Feb 26 11:07:21 uxtjp51 chat[187]: send (ATZ^M) Feb 26 11:07:21 uxtjp51 chat[187]: expect (OK) Feb 26 11:07:21 uxtjp51 chat[187]: ATZ^M^M Feb 26 11:07:21 uxtjp51 chat[187]: OK Feb 26 11:07:21 uxtjp51 chat[187]: -- got it Feb 26 11:07:21 uxtjp51 chat[187]: send (ATDTPHONENUMBER^M) Feb 26 11:07:21 uxtjp51 chat[187]: expect (CONNECT) Feb 26 11:07:21 uxtjp51 chat[187]: ^M Feb 26 11:07:46 uxtjp51 chat[187]: ATDTPHONENUMBER^M^M Feb 26 11:07:46 uxtjp51 chat[187]: CONNECT Feb 26 11:07:46 uxtjp51 chat[187]: -- got it Feb 26 11:07:46 uxtjp51 chat[187]: send (^M^M) Feb 26 11:07:46 uxtjp51 chat[187]: expect (ost Name:) Feb 26 11:07:46 uxtjp51 chat[187]: 33600^M Feb 26 11:07:46 uxtjp51 chat[187]: ^M Feb 26 11:07:46 uxtjp51 chat[187]: ^M Feb 26 11:07:47 uxtjp51 chat[187]: 0005TJD^M Feb 26 11:07:47 uxtjp51 chat[187]: ^M Feb 26 11:07:47 uxtjp51 chat[187]: Host Name: Feb 26 11:07:47 uxtjp51 chat[187]: -- got it Feb 26 11:07:47 uxtjp51 chat[187]: send (HOSTNAME^M) Feb 26 11:07:47 uxtjp51 chat[187]: expect (ser ID:) Feb 26 11:07:47 uxtjp51 chat[187]: HOSTNAME^M Feb 26 11:08:32 uxtjp51 chat[187]: alarm Feb 26 11:08:32 uxtjp51 chat[187]: Failed Feb 26 11:08:32 uxtjp51 pppd[186]: Connect script failed Feb 26 11:08:33 uxtjp51 pppd[186]: Exit. It looks to me as if it gets stuck on the Host Name. When it gets the UserID promt it sends the Host Name again ???? Please advise how to do it right.
