HELP. My chat script doesn't work.

["Jens K. Olsen" <jolsen@gol.com>]

I have been trying to connect to my ISP for some time but without any
luck. When I use Windows I can connect without problems. Following is
the script that works in Windows:

; This is a script file that demonstrates how
; to establish a PPP connection with Compuserve,
; which requires changing the port settings to
; log in.
;
; Main entry point to script
;
proc main

   ; Set the port settings so we can wait for
   ; non-gibberish text.

   set port databits 7
   set port parity even

   transmit "^M"

   waitfor "Host Name:"
   transmit "HOSTNAME^M"

   waitfor "User ID:"
   transmit $USERID, raw
   transmit "/go:pppconnect^M"

   waitfor "Password: "
   transmit $PASSWORD, raw
   transmit "^M"

   waitfor "One moment please..."

   ; Set the port settings back to allow successful
   ; negotiation.

   set port databits 8
   set port parity none

endproc

I have confirmed with minicom that I need to provide a host name, next a
user ID, and finally a password. I edited my /etc/chatscripts/provider
to the following:

ABORT BUSY
ABORT "NO CARRIER"
ABORT VOICE
ABORT "NO DIALTONE"
ABORT "NO ANSWER"
"" ATZ
OK ATDTPHONENUMBER
CONNECT ^M
"ost Name:" HOSTNAME
"ser ID:" USERID
"assword:" /qPASSWORD

When I try to login using pon, this is what happens:

Feb 26 11:07:20 uxtjp51 pppd[186]: pppd 2.3.5 started by LOGIN, uid 1000

It looks to me as if it gets stuck on the Host Name. When it gets the
UserID promt it sends the Host Name again ????

Please advise how to do it right.
