Hi all,
Well thanks to those who gave me input on my modem not connecting to the provider. I tried all the suggestions (aside from switching providers) and still it times out on the 'sending password' portion of the connect. Having to use my wifes winbox to connect is killing me :( Oh well..I know I don't have to worry about her using my machine for anything now cuz I get the "See..I told you Windows is better" attitude.
In case somebody else has some insight here are the logs again.

Hi: I think you might want to try the following: 1] Contact your ISP and ask them to give you a test usrname and testpasswd. Try it, and see if there's still a problem. 2] Find someone that is using a dialup down the street. Ask them to put their ISP connect number, usrname, passwd in your settings. Test, and see if they have a problem connecting. 3] Contact your ISP and ask them to watch their log files for your connection attempt, and let you know what they find. 4] Compare your connect log with what's in your /var/log/messages file: ~>tail -200 /var/log/messages 5] Contact another ISP and tell them you want to test your linux box to see if their service will work smoothly, because you're thinking of switching. Ask them for a test phone number, usrname and passwd. And, if none of the above get your problem solved, let me know, and I'll keep thinking. My head hurts already. <grin> Tom

are the ******* you typed in exactly what is shown by wvdial or do you see your actual login name? **** is when wvdial sends passwords. If that is not the case then have tried logging in manually? if so with success then if you post your actual login sequence we may be able to help you better. you can even ask your provider for that information.

Mmm. You need to see exactly what the ISP is sending back to you. It may be that after login it has a menu of options, in some cases you need to send the string "ppp" to get going after logging in. You could try using minicom to call the ISP and see what is happening. You are not getting responses back to your LCP echos, which suggests that the ppp protocol is not really established OR the ISP end is confused about something. If your password is really not being accepted you should see something about pap/chap authentification failures I seem to recall. Get your ISP on the phone and see if they will co-operate in monitoring a session with you. I don't use wvdial anymore since I have an ISDN connection but I do recall it was a very smart program in trying to work out the vagaries of various ISP's.

Hi ! I hope someone of you is running Informix Dynamix Server 2000 in SuSE 7.1 ... I don't know why i can't start the server... I don't have problems installing it, the default instalation directory is /opt/informix and the user/groups are already created by default when i installed SuSE. After the instalation i edit /etc/services and add the followin line sqlturbo 50000/tcp #Informix service then i edit .bash_profile from the user informix and i add these lines INFORMIXDIR=/opt/informix INFORMIXSERVER=base PATH=$PATH:$INFORMIXDIR/bin export INFORMIXDIR INFORMIXSERVER PATH then in /opt/informix/etc i create the file sqlhosts and i add #-------------------------------sqlhosts------------------------- base onsoctcp eldaras sqlturbo #----------------------------end sqlhosts---------------------- eldaras is the name of the linux box. then i create /opt/informix/data directory and inside i create a file called rootdb in this way cat /dev/null > rootdb chmod 660 rootdb then i configure the server with onmonitor....i already have a informix server running in redhat 6.2, but i want to start using it on SuSE...(the whole company is running SuSE except this server....) but i can't figure out what is wrong... when i try to execute oninit i says that it can't start the shared memory (i don't remember the exact message.... but this utility isn't too verbose anyway...).. So if someone could help me i would be realy greateful ! Thanks in advance. Augusto.
Hi Mark, Unfornuately I have not been across this thread, so excuse me if I give you something you have tried before. I have a couple of suggestions you may try. Some ISPs have both a manual login and a pap/chap login. The text based login results in you ending up with a telnet type service. The pap/chap based login results with ppp service and access to all the web services. In vwdial there is an option called "stupid mode" which does not respond to any of the prompts and tries to start ppp straight up. You may want to try this by editing the /etc/vwdial.conf file and inserting Stupid Mode = 1 Refer to "man vwdial" for further info regarding this option I also suggest you make sure you have write access to /etc/ppp/pap-secrets and /etc/ppp/chap-secrets Let me know how you get on with this option.
