I can not figure this out. When I use a dialup, the first attempt after booting works fine most times But on the second attempt, it normally fails to work, stopping at: password: --> Looks like a password prompt. --> Sending: (password) This is me...is this you? Exiting shell, and starting PPP session. ~[7f]}#@!}!}!} }8}!}$}%\}"}&} }*} } }%}&a[18][16]D}'}"}(}"Gd~ --> PPP negotiation detected. --> Starting pppd at Sun Feb 24 20:29:22 2002 --> pid of pppd: 4093 --> pppd: Using interface ppp0 and thats it... Problem A. With that is that dialup uses PAP not PPP and wvdial fails to detect that. But thats what it does 99.9% of the time on me, and have no clue why, anyone have an idea?

PAP is a form of authentication, PPP is the Peer to Peer Protocol and is what everything (almost) uses to communicate over among other things telephone lines. I have to say the above looks like it should look. What is it that isn't working? Don't you get an interface ppp0 if you do "ifconfig"? Isn't routing set up properly? Don't you get a nameserver in /etc/resolv.conf? //Anders
I have no clue how to tell whats specifically isn't working, I just started using dialup recently, so no experience with it and linux... As for anything showing up.. Nothing ifconfig dont show ppp0, route not added, and no nameserver gets set, it sits there and thats it :/ Robert On 25 Feb 2002 03:18:34 +0100, Anders Johansson wrote:
