Re: Now, for the most FAQ!



for ppp in general messages goto /var/log/messages so before you run pon
login again and type.
# tail -f /var/log/messages

messages might also go into /etc/ppp/*.log so 
# tail -f /var/log/messages /etc/ppp/*.log 
might be better but im not sure.

Also messages dont get deleted so you can do something like
# tail -n 1000 /var/log/messages|less 
to see what went wrong on the previous attempts.

The last line of a ppp connection is "remote message" when you get your 
ip
