I think they are un-necessary. You're saying to expect nothing twice, so if the login prompt arrives that could be causing the message. The man page, Handbook, and ppp.conf.sample all show ``TIMEOUT 10 gin:--gin:''. Try that instead. Actually, are you sure that your ISP doesn't use CHAP/PAP?? In which case you need ``set authname'' and ``set authkey'' rather than ``set login''. > set timeout 300 > set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0 255.255.255.0 0.0.0.0 > add default HISADDR > enable DNS -- Trust the computer industry to shorten Year 2000 to Y2K. It was this thinking that caused the problem in the first place.
