By default, the group you must be in to use pppd is "dip": [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ll /usr/sbin/pppd -rwsr-xr-- 1 root dip 230604 10.

Check the pppd man page for the meaning of its exit codes. This one means: The link was terminated because the peer is not responding to echo requests. This happens to me sometimes when I try do dial. When I try again, it works. Did you try several times or only once? best regards Andreas Janssen -- Andreas Janssen [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP-Key-ID: 0xDC801674 Registered Linux User #267976 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
