Yesterday I upgraded 3.0.1 to 3.0.3 and today KPPP fails. On first dial-up attempt connection is made, then immediately disconnects. The status bar of Login Script Debug Window shows: "Starting pppd..." and then KPPP just stops with no further activity. Subsequent dial-up attempts are the same, except that an error dialog is displayed: "The pppd daemon died unexpectedly! Exit status: 2 See 'man pppd' for an explanation of the error codes or take a look at the kppp FAQ on http://devel-home.kde.org/~kppp/index.html" man ppd states that: "Exit Status 2 = An error was detected in processing the options given, such as two mutually exclusive options being used." The referenced url provides no useful additional information. /var/log/warn has several entries like: "pppd[2218]: Can't open options file /etc/ppp/peers/kppp: No such file or directory" This is true, but making changes to KPPP setup does not create this file and I can't find any info about what this file should contain. Since I had not previously made any changes to my KPPP settings and I get the same failure when trying to connect with any one of 4 separate ISPs, I must assume that something in this upgrade caused the problem. I can get on-line without any difficulty using KInternet, but I would prefer to use KPPP. Can anyone suggest a possible solution to this problem? TIA Dave
