Greetings! I am new to UNIX so I am hoping you can help me with some info on how to properly configure my ppp.conf file. So far I have been unsuccessful in negotiating any PPP connection and I suspect the culprit is my login script. I've experimented with various example scripts and read the chat(8) documentation but to no avial. I have a static IP address, so I have no ppp.linkup and I have no need for security so ppp.secret is blank. The hosts file contains: 127.0.0.1 localhost 255.xxx.xxx.xx mercury.aegis1.com mercury resolv.conf: nameserver 199.xxx.xxx.x nameserver 199.xxx.xxx.x ppp.conf: default: set device /dev/cuaa0 set speed 115200 disable lqr deny lqr set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \"\" ATE1Q0 OK-AT-OK \\dATDT\\T TIMEOUT 20 CONNECT" Servnet: set phone 625xxxx:625xxxx set login "TIMEOUT 10 gin:-BREAK-gin: myusername ssword: mypassword col: ppp" set timeout 480 set ifaddr 255.xxx.xxx.xx 199.xxx.xxx.x delete ALL add 0 0 199.xxx.xxx.x set openmode active What's wrong with this picture? I would like to use multi-link PPP, so I need to dial 2 numbers in sequence to establish a MPPP connection until my ISP can get US West to successfully hunt the lead ISDN number(I'm guessing the turn of the century). When monitored from the host, I am told connection is made on one channel but no username/password is sent so the connection fails. All file data has been checked and rechecked, so I don't think it's a typo. I am also usure about the entries starting from set ifaddr. My ISP has 2 DNS, but only one IP is defined. Can I add a second, or is it unecessary due to the resolv.conf file? My BSD version is 2.2.1. Sorry about the long message. Any help you could offer would be greatly appreciated. Thanks much! Adam J.
