Well, it could be a lot of things... what error msgs do you get and if
none, then what msgs are in your syslog right after the pon fails? you
could try this..
open terminal and issue (as root) tail -f /var/log/syslog
open another terminal and issue you pon command
watch the output in the syslog screen to see what is happening
good luck..
What is pon? What package does it belong to? Most people use wvdial,
with a nice front-end such as gnome-ppp.
I'm guessing you are relatively new to linux?? pon and poff are part
and parcial and should be on all linux if ppp is installed..
pon <resource file in /etc/ppp/peers/> to make connection
poff to end it..
Assuming that "pon" is a legitimate app for doing what you want,
you'll
need to provide your pppd logs to someone knowledgeable for
debugging.
