I recently set up something similar on my home firewall box. Are you able to dial out using something like: # pppd call provider In my case, changing the script line from something like: connect "/usr/sbin/chat -v -f /etc/chatscripts/provider" to something like: connect "/etc/chatscripts/provider" made it work, however I think I'm currently using a modified wvdial script. I also had to add an entry: user <username> to make PAP authentication with my ISP work. Do the messages in /var/log/messages suggest that you have a firewall enabled? Sorry I don't have my exact configuration handy here. I might be able to get it and mail it to you later. Feel free to post most information, questions, or answers here, and I'll try to help. -- Michael Wardle Adacel Technologies -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
