PPP troubles.....



Heya!

Here's where I have been:

I started trying to set up a pp connection a few months ago. I can't
sit and hack this full time, as I have jobs (in the plural) taking up
a *lot* of my time. I've been through ezppp, wvdial, hand hacking,
gnome-ppp, and I just haven't gotten anywhere. I have learned a lot
about ppp in theory, though.

I have, and have read, Using and Managing PPP, A practical guide to
Linux, Using Linux, a few web pages printed up, and my isp's
suggestions:http//supposrt.paonline.com/support/OTHER/LINUX.HTM

I have some outdated experience with various flavors of unix from my
mil days.

Now- I'm going to start hacking this all through again, by hand- it's
too hard to figure out what is going on with front-ends.

My first step is to change all files as suggested by my isp.
Then what? I am supposing I need to write a script, but am not sure
what to put into it, or what order.

(Other sysinfo: kernel 2.2.something, ppp 2.3.5, I think. My modem is
a very standard internal, which I can dial out with- the problem isn't
there. 16550A UART chip, 28.8 kbps.)

Thanks,
Koyote
