If you examine /var/log/messages, look for lines like the following: Jan 4 22:31:55 goober chat[2710]: CONNECT 57600^M Jan 4 22:31:57 goober chat[2710]: ^M Jan 4 22:31:57 goober chat[2710]: host -- got it Jan 4 22:31:57 goober chat[2710]: send (ns^M) Jan 4 22:31:57 goober chat[2710]: expect (ogin) Jan 4 22:31:57 goober chat[2710]: : ns^M Jan 4 22:31:57 goober chat[2710]: login -- got it Jan 4 22:31:57 goober chat[2710]: send (ncutler^M) Jan 4 22:31:58 goober chat[2710]: expect (word) Jan 4 22:31:58 goober chat[2710]: :ncutler^M Jan 4 22:31:58 goober chat[2710]: Password -- got it Jan 4 22:31:58 goober chat[2710]: send (??????)

But the equivalent lines on yours should help you track down the cause of the problem. HTH -- Nathan L.
