my understanding of having the 'TIMEOUT 10' phrase in the 'set login' statement
was that the timeout gets changed to 10 seconds when it expects the 'ogin:'
prompt...i took it out any to test and it didn't work anyway.

i changed the statement so it sends a carriage return instead of a line feed
but again i end up hitting my head against a brick wall. (and it hurt ;-)

	set login "TIMEOUT 10 ogin:-\\r-ogin: MYUSERNAME assword: MYPASSWORD"


i getting the following in the ppp.log when i try to chat...

	Expecting ogin:\r-ogin:
	Wait for (10): ogin --> ogin:
	sending: MYUSERNAME
	Expecting assword:
	Wait for (10): assword: --> assword:
	got:
	can't get (10).

i take it that the 'got:' statement on the second to last line means that it
just got an empty line, i can't figure out why it isn't picking up the assword:
prompt - it seems to be picking up the :ogin prompt allright....

thanx again for any help...
