I attached the output from wvdial to show you what I mean.

I was working with diald first, mainly because the boot output contained a 
message saying I should configure it. When it wasn't working this time around, 
I opened the "advanced" section of pppconfig, which gave an "enable demand 
dialing" option. It was deselected and I thought maybe that was the problem, so 
I selected it. It didn't change anything.

I'm attaching the first two. Plog came up with no output, and I checked, and 
there was no /var/log/ppp-log (or whatever the name of the file was that plog 
checks--I have to send these emails from a different computer, for obvious 
reasons).

BTW, I'm having to send these from a 'doze box. I hope it doesn't scramble the 
files as I send them to you. They look messed up in Notepad.

Thanks again,

Keith
