Re: wvdial dials; kppp doesn't. Why???
I made a little headway here, I got kppp to go through (as root) but it
died quickly. I'll look for some info on CHAP, I guess, eh?
(I'm embarrassed to say that I had misidentified the serial port, I had it
as /dev/ttys0 . . . oops! But there must be at least another problem!)
