O.K., Kent and Celejar.

Sorry for the delay, but I've got to shutdown, remove the drive, put another 
in, reboot, install gpmand then hit the logs to find any discrepancies 
anywhere.
Type up what I find, then do the procedure in reverse.

Anyway, here I am:

Nothing I can spot in syslog.
The kernal picks up the one and only serial port on boot -I'm running a 
6400+ on an Asus M3A, so it's only got the one serial port and just one IDE 
channel.
And everything looks alright all the way through the ppp connect procedure 
also.

ifconfig -a?
I did before, and after connect, to see what holes there might be in the 
bucket.

So, the connection is there the apps just can't access it.

I think we're back to config somewhere.
Regards and thanks for any further suggestions,
