Hi all,
I have set what PPP&SLIP chap 13 in docs said to do (I believe)
But I have set my ppp.conf as per below. (thanks  Greg Lahey)
But hey...not a blip out of the modem (I now it works OK)
Maybe I have the setups trying com1 instead of com2?
I have done the PPP & SLIP setups according to ch13 as user ppp

I notice that ifconfig -a 
reports...=flags8010<POINTTOPOINT,MULTICAST> mtn 1500
shouldn't it say RUNNING

here is ppp.conf
default:
 set device /dev/cuaa1
 set speed 57600
 disable lqr
 deny lqr
 set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NOCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 " ATE1Q0 OK-AT-OK ATDT TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT"
ISP:
 set phone 727424
 set login "TIMEOUT 5 login:--login: username word: nopeekingnow" 
 set timeout 120
 set ifaddr 0 0
 set openmode active
 accept chap
 deny pap
 disable chap
 disable pap
 set authname BigBird
 set authkey  X4dWg9327
