Well I changed the conf.modules file to 'alias tapx off', and it worked,
kind of.. I got the modem to dial, connect, login and start the ppp
protocol. Unfortunately I then got the messages that follow:
SIOCADDRT: file exists
SIOCADDRT: file exists
SIODELRT: no such process
SIOCSIFMETRIC: operation not supported
SIOCADDRT: file exists
SIOCADDRT: file exists
Disconnect. call duration 7 seconds
IP Transmitted 840 bytes and recieved 0 bytes
closing devide /dev/modem
LCP: Timeout sending Config-Request
I believe that the last message is crucial... What am I or is my ISP doing
wrong (I work for the ISP).

Subject: RE: Can't get terminal parameters: Invalid argument
Thank you , I am using the standard shell (bash) with RH 6.0, I compiled the
firewall and sucn into the Kernel with actualy upgrading it (2.2.5-15) and
it gave me a message about not finding tap0, tap1 etc. I read the
README.ethertap and defined them in conf.modules. That is when I got the new
message. The machine is at my house and I am playing hockey tonight, I may
not have much time to test. I will set them to off and try once or twice.
Will let you know what happens.

I have to get that machine into production fast but will try and re-create
the problem on another machine as soon as possible.

It's a bug that Mike (so far) hasn't been able to duplicate. So any help
recreating the problem would be appreciated.
Which shell and kernel version are you using?
Turning tap support off will allow diald to work properly in slip mode but
I'd really like to have this bug caught and killed.
Just commenting out the conf.module tap lines worked here though the
following may be neccessary.
conf.modules
alias tap0 off
...
alias tap15 off
