Hallo Andreas, danke für Deine Antwort. Jedoch habe ich bislang noch keinen Erfolg gehabt. Deine Hinweise habe ich verfolgt: 1.) In /etc/mgetty+sendfax/login.config steht: /AutoPPP/ - a_ppp /usr/sbin/pppd auth * - - /bin/login @ 2.) der "Stupid Mode" in /etc/wvdial.conf scheint aktiv zu sein: [Dialer Defaults] Modem = /dev/modem Baud = 57600 Init1 = ATZ Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 Init3 = Area Code = Phone = 0 Username = Password = Ask Password = 0 Dial Command = ATDT Stupid Mode = 1 Compuserve = 0 Force Address = Idle Seconds = 300 DialMessage1 = DialMessage2 = ISDN = 0 Auto DNS = 1 3.) Schließlich habe auf dem server ein /usr/bin/ppp mit folgenden Inhalt angelegt: "/usr/sbin/pppd auth". Nun bringt kinternet mir etwas andere Meldungen, jedoch scheint da immer noch was nicht zustimmen: SuSE Meta pppd (smpppd-ifcfg), Version 1.16 on Shadow.
