No. I've had two reports about utmp logging. Everything else has been either finger trouble or people using archaic versions of the software. Of course lots of people don't read the documentation - but there's now a README.devel file in the sources to point people in the right direction :-) > My turn: > > /dev/cuaa1 exists, kernel recognizes existence of serial port 1 (comm 2 w/ > external modem) but when I call > > #ppp PC > > I get the ppp prompt, but before that I get an "Interactive mode"; > > If I say > > >dial PC > > it says it is trying to dial, but no access is made to the modem. > > Ideas ? (I don't have my ppp.conf here rigt now, or I would have attached it) What does `show modem' say ? Are you using the correct device ? Can you access it with tip/cu/kermit etc ? Are you sure you have no IRQ conflicts ? > TIA ! -- Brian , , Don't _EVER_ lose your sense of humour....
