Hi,
When I try to get my ppp working in auto mode I get the following problem ......

# ppp -auto default
Working in auto mode
Using interface: tun0
Warning: Bad label in /etc/ppp/ppp.conf (line 3) - missing colon
Warning: Bad label in /etc/ppp/ppp.conf (line 3) - missing colon
You must "set ifaddr" with a peer address in auto mode.
#

In my ppp.conf I have the following lines about "set ifaddr"

add default HISADDR
set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0 255.255.255.0 0.0.0.0

I don't know if this would help but I have a 3Com Us Robotics 56k Fax Modem.

Kind Regards
Corné
