[expect]    [send]

simple, isn't it?

You need the chapscript, but you have to truncate it.

Make it read:

ABORT     BUSY
ABORT     "NO CARRIER"
ABORT     VOICE
ABORT     "NO DIALTONE"
""        AT&F
OK        ATDT<phonenum>
CONNECT                 

Also edit your /etc/ppp.options like:

defaultroute /dev/ttyS1 115200 debug user <your username at your ISP> 

Then add a line to your /etc/ppp/pap-secrets:

<your username at your ISP>	*	<your password yt your ISP>


If you choose to use X, I recommend the xisp package. You can get a fairly
new version from ftp://134.95.210.54/pub

Ciao,
