[snip] I have found (command-line) pon/poff to be (far) more reliable than (graphical) kppp. Well, actually is probably a configuration issue, like calling timeouts and such, but the fact is that when using kppp I get several tries before contacting the ISP and logging, and with pon it hardly ever fails to connect on the first try. One question I would like to make myself (I mean... not _to_ myself, hehehe) is: how does one get the modem not to produce its annoying noises with pon? With kppp there is an option somewhere with the "Modem Volume" or something, but I have perused the pon conf files (some shared with kppp, I believe) to no avail. RTFMs kindly accepted, as answers would be :^) Basajaun -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
