ppp problems



Howdy,

Finally dusted off my old (almost a year) IBM laptop and installed 
debian. Nice installation (although a little confusing at times). 
installed ppp and all the dependent files - but here's the problem:

when I use the scripts provided - nothing! no modem activity.
then I used some scripts that I use on my other linux machine - still 
nothing!

Yes - 	everything is pluged in
	everything works fine under DOG (modem on com1)
	set up modem for cua0

kernel finds and reports correct irq and address and calls it cua0

But I get nothing - not even a click or beep :(
have resolv.conf, hosts, etc all set up correctly (by the standards of my 
other linux box).

What have I missed???? any thoughts

I really like debian (very logical setup) but if I can't get on the net, 
well enough said.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance
