The problem was fixed a day or two ago. Ppp was failing to untimeout after receiving the expect string, then while it's paused due to the \\d before your ATD, the timeout happens. Either upgrade to the latest & greatest at http://www.Awfulhak.org/ppp.html or increase your timeout strings. > Joe Clarke Cheers. -- Brian <brian@Awfulhak.org>, <brian@FreeBSD.org>, <brian@OpenBSD.org> <http://www.Awfulhak.org>; Don't _EVER_ lose your sense of humour....
