Two weeks ago, I managed to connect by ppp. I have no idea what I changed that finally made it work correctly, but I thought I'd saved all the files in /etc I changed. Apparently not. I use the ltmdm module to use the linux driver. I can dial out and connect just fine. In fact, I can get the other end to start a ppp connection, which ifconig -a seems to recognize. I don't seem to get anytning (not even dialing) from the -auto option to ppp. I'm baffled. I'm dreading having to use windows for three hours to listen to my game tomorow--it's difficult enough to do it right now (and please excuse any weird formatting; this is painful). Please cc: this account; I can't get through to the regular account where I subscribe to this list. Here's a capture of ifconifg after manually dialing a ppp connection. THe adress from ifconfig is consistant with what I'm told from the ppp window.
