Re: pppd daemon dies
I don't know minicom at all. I've never used it. I have been
thinking that I'm an idiot lately since I can't resolve this
problem. I don't think it has anything to do with my isp or I
wouldn't be able to connect with SuSE 8.1 & (yuck) Win ME, and tonight I
installed slackware 9.0 just 15 minutes ago, probably to prove I have
some brain cells left, and I plugged in my info and here I am using
slack and on the internet. I'm not looking for flame. I just don't know
what more to do with kppp or pppconfigure; /etc/ppp/options-pap-secerets
chap. I have looked at and edited more files read more man pages..yadda
yadda. I will reboot into deb and set up debug as someone else here
recommended. We'll see thanks again to all this has been a real hard to
figure out problem. JY
