Yep. You're missing a default entry in your config file... Refer to ppp.conf.sample for an example: : # Default setup. Always executed when PPP is invoked. : # This section is *not* loaded by the ``load'' or ``dial'' commands. : # : # This is the best place to specify your modem device, it's DTR rate, : # and any logging specification. Logging specs should be done first : # so that subsequent commands are logged. : # : default: : set log Phase Chat LCP IPCP CCP tun command : set device /dev/cuaa1 : set speed 115200 : set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \"\" AT OK-AT-OK ATE1Q0 OK \\dATDT\\T TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT" Maybe you haven't created /etc/ppp.conf ? Have you read the man page (best place to start) ? > any help here would be greatly appreciated. > ThankYou.in advance: -- Brian , , Don't _EVER_ lose your sense of humour....
