    KPPP dialup problems

    I cannot connect via 56k dialup with KPPP. My modem is recognized in the ttys0 i believe, and its a U.S. Robotics v.90. I set the dns servers correctly, phone #, and user/pass. It freezes when it hits the initializing modem part and i cant hear it dial at all. any ideas? thanks.

    did u try modem diagnostics in the kppp setup.. the ttyS0 could just be a default setting. just check if it can query modem correctly

    make sure that the modem drivers are installed (lsmod for a list of modules), and check out the Linmodem stuff.

    have fun
