The problem is that they are using pap. Now if you login in with minicom, the only command that comes up is "system password". Now I called the I S P and they are telling me that if you configure your pap correctly, this prompt will not come up. I am using pon and poff for connection via debian. I mad a chat script which looks somewhat like this: abort busy abort no carrier abort voice '' atdt7694860 "CONNECT" This logs on to the system and waits for a connect command from the modem. All this works fine, but nothing happens afterwords. I have edited the pap-secrets command to add the appropriate password and also edited the ppp.options_ou command to add the approprioate user. I have also edit the /et//ppp/options file to have +pap and auth uncommented. I also made sure that the login command is commented. Now all it does is give me a connection successful and sits there. If I tytpe an ifconfig, nothing comes up on the screen for pppd. I already have setup the domainname servers speciications and stuff like that. Any help would be appreciated. P.S. It works fine under windows 95, wierd. My conficuration under windows 95 for dialup connection is: use ppp connection, with no login into network and use software compression no password encryption and use t c p i p protocol. Get ip address from server and use ip header compression.
