The modem device is probably still locked by the dearly departed pppd. Check that both ppp and pppupd are using the same device (i.e. /dev/ttyS0) and there is no lock file being left around in /var/lock. Also what do the /var/log/ppp and /var/log/pppupd logfiles say?
Or it could be a bug. I've neglected pppupd for a while but when I'm finished with my current work on imap, I'll be looking at it again. -- Jaldhar H. Vyas <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> On Wed, 14 Jul 1999, S.
