I don't know if this was all I did but the ppp stuff is working now. This was using ppp interactively through term. BTW, I have to manually set the vjcomp because ppp can't figure out what's happening at the terminal server end. When the vjcomp settings don't match, the symptoms are that the linkup appears to be fine but the machine doesn't get any responses to requests that it sends out. -- William T.
