How to use dial-up connection?

[kornerr]

I'm not complete newbie to Linux, but complete fool
(If u have much time u can see the whole my stupid story at www.linuxquestion.org->Forums->LinDistros->Slackware->How to use dial-up connection) I'm writing cuz I still don't know how to use dial-up connection. I have ZyXel56kOmniPlusPCI, Conexant HSF chipset. I run kppp in terminal. I press 'Connect' button, it dials required number, beep-beep-...-beep, silence for a second. Then I see 'running pppd' string in KPPP StatusBar. Then KPPP redials over and over again with no success.

I ran kppp from terminal. See it.
I don't underst& what should I do.
I hope u know.

root@darkstar:~# kppp
Opener: received SetSecret

In parent: pppd pid 274
Couldn't find interface ppp0: No such device
Kernel supports ppp alright.
Couldn't find interface ppp0: No such device
It was pppd that died
pppd exited with return value 1
Sending 265 a SIGUSR1

How to set up this 'ppp0'???

i am glad you got it working, but for anyone else looking at this tread trying to solve a similar problem, pppsetup does work for dialup connections

Slackware includes the pppsetup utility for configuring a dialup connection to an ISP.

But first use ONLY kppp, if it doesnt work try other things.
