Hello, i have a problem using ppp as a server.
When i start it like this:

root # ppp -direct server

it prints out a garbage:

~ÿ}#À!}!}!} }=}(}"}'}"}"}&} } } } }!}$}%Ü}%}&?å3i}#}%Â#}%CÃ~~ÿ}#À!}!}!} 
}=}(}"}'}"}"}&} } } } }!}$}%Ü}%}&?å3i}#}%Â#}%CÃ~~ÿ}#À!}!}!} }=}(}"}'}"}
"}&} } } } }!}$}%Ü}%}&?å3i}#}%Â#}%CÃ~~ÿ}#À!}!}!} }=}(}"}'}"}"}&} } } }
 }!}$}%Ü}%}&?å3i}#}%Â#}%CÃ~~ÿ}#À!}!}!} }=}(}"}'}"}"}&} } } } }!}$}%Ü}%
}&?å3i}#}%Â#}%CÃ~
root # 

then terminates normally (i see it in the log file).

this is my ppp.conf file:

default:                                              
        set log Phase Chat LCP IPCP CCP tun command   
        ident user-ppp VERSION (built COMPILATIONDATE)
        set device /dev/cuaa1                         
        set speed 38400      
        set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \
                \"\" AT OK-AT-OK ATE1Q0 OK \\dATDT\\T TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT"
        set timeout 180
        enable dns

server:
        enable chap
        set ifaddr 192.168.0.1 192.168.0.2

I also tried to run PPP like this:

root # ppp -direct server &

It doesn't terminate in this case, but it doesn't even listen to the telephone line when somebody dials up to me.

It starts to work only when i go into ppp interactive mode, and then run "term" command.

I have FreeBSD-4.4 RELEASE, and ppp 2.3.2

THE MAIN PROBLEM IS THAT I CAN NOT MAKE MY MODEM TO ANSWER TO THE CONNECTION REQUEST AUTOMATICALLY.
