I haven't used kernel mode ppp much (i was luckily steered away in the final moments to ijppp), but in ijppp this would indicate a chat script problem, ie your script doesn't get you logged in enough to get ppp up and either pppd or your ISP gives up. > I have tried the suggestions in the Handbook, but I guess I need more > hand-holding! :-(( That's what we're here for :-) > Any help, suggestions, sample FreeBSD setup files (/etc/ppp/options, et > al) would be MOST appreciated. If you want I can put up my ijppp ppp.conf as an example. The 'simplesite' definition is pretty close to what I am using, with just modifications to the chat script and phone number.
