They only configuration I have done is put my username, password, and isp phone# in the proper fields in the ppp.config file in /ect/ppp. nothing else - yet it connects and Netscapes works. it surfs quite fast. right now I su to root and ppp, papchat, and that's it. Is there a way i would not have to be root to establish a ppp? do you recommend a script that non-roots can execute 0r is there a better standard way? thanks - i am still amazed that only 3 parameters were needed to connect - i can't believe my connection is optimized - but it surfs faster than my microsoft box as it is! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ yes, it works now - i can connect after "rm lock".
