PPP problems still
Hello,
I am probably getting on peoples nerves, but I still dont have my
ppp working on my linux box. I have followed the howto's and have tried
what advice has been given me. None of this has worked so far. :(
So I am still hoping that someone can shed some light on what I am doing
wrong. I am enclosing the files that are needed to determine what is
going on inside my system. It is a micron 166, 32M RAM, Supra 288i
internal PnP modem, the rest is fairly irrelevant. I would also like to
know if anyone knows how to compress an Iomega Zip-Disk in linux, as I
would like to utilize my zip's for backing up files. At this point, any
help at all is appreciated. I also have a line in my options file, that
calls to a file named ppp-connect in /etc/ppp however, I do not have
this file. Could this be my main problem at this point? I have
configured my kernel, hopefully correctly. When I enter pon, or pppd,
nothing happens, my modem is not even initialized. If I cannot get this
working, then I will be stuck searching for another OS, but would really
like to use linux, since I like the options it makes available. Thanks
for your patience and any help that can be offered.

# If you need to set up multiple serial lines then copy
# this file to
# options.<ttyname> for each tty with a modem on it.
#
# The options.tty file will assign an IP address to each PPP connection
# as it comes up. They must all be distinct!
#
# Example:
# options.ttyS1 for com2 under DOS.
#
# Edit the following line so that the first IP address
# mentioned is the ip address of the serial port while the second
# is the IP address of your host
#
# I usually use the convention os + dash + last 2 character of
# the ttyname to refer to serial ports.
# For example servername_s1 for ttyS1 on server "servername"

# This is a pap-secrets file to be used with the AUTO_PPP function of mgetty
# mgetty-0.99 is preconfigured to startup pppd with the login option which
# will cause pppd to consult /etc/passwd after a user has passed this file
# Dont be disturbed therfore by the fact that this file defines logins with
# any password for users. /etc/passwd will catch passwd mismatches.
#
# This file should block ALL users that should not be able to do AUTO_PPP!
# AUTO_PPP bypasses the usual login program so its necessary to list all
# system userids with regular passwords here!
#
# ATTENTION: The definitions here can allow users to login without a
# password if you dont use the login option of pppd!
# The /etc/ppp/options file installed has the login option enabled
# INBOUND connections
# Every regular user can use PPP and has to use passwords from /etc/passwd
