I've followed the handbook instructions precisely in setting up user-mode
ppp. However, I'm having trouble connecting to the two ISPs I use. Using
Windows 95, I can connect just fine to both using the same machine.

Here's my /etc/ppp.conf file:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
default:
  set device /dev/cuaa1
  set speed 57600
  disable lqr
  deny lqr
  set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 20 \"\" ATE1Q0 OK-AT-OK
\\dATDT\\T TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT"

theonlynet:
  set phone 93557788
  accept pap
  enable pap
  set authname REMOVED
  set authkey REMOVED
  set timeout 120
  set ifaddr 10.10.10.10/0 10.10.11.11/0 255.255.255.0
  delete ALL
  add 0 0 HISADDR
  set openmode active

uofu:
  set phone 95813960
  accept pap  
  enable pap
  set authname REMOVED
  set authkey REMOVED
  set timeout 120
  set ifaddr 10.10.10.10/0 10.10.11.11/0 255.255.255.0
  delete ALL
  add 0 0 HISADDR
  set openmode active

-----------------------------------------------------------------

/etc/ppp.linkup:

-----------------------------------------------------------------

theonlynet:
  delete ALL
  add 0 0 HISADDR
uofu:
  delete ALL
  add 0 0 HISADDR

----------------------------------------------------------------


Even though the configuration for both sites is identical, I have two
different problems: (both are dynamic IP addresses)

  When I dial The Only Net (which I happen to know uses a freeBSD terminal
server), ppp reports that it has logged on successfully. However, the
modem disconnects after a few seconds. If I `show proto` in ppp, I can see
that no pap packets have been exchanged. I assume that the disconnect is
because of the remote timeout.

  When I dial the University of Utah, I get the same report of a
successful logon and entering packet mode. A 'show proto' reports some pap
(and other) packets being exchanged. However, I can't communicate with
ther server at all, and a `show ip` in ppp shows me the dummy values that
I put in (10.10.10.10 and 10.10.11.11), so it appears that the negotiation
hasn't been successful.

Any hints will be valued!
