mine looks like this now:

name suse-server
debug
crtscts
lock
modem        # I tried the 'local'-option too, disabling modem
asyncmap 0
mtu 512
netmask 255.255.255.0
idle 600
noipx
proxyarp

192.168.1.2:192.168.1.1
    ^           ^
  linux       amiga

I wonder where this additional option.ttyS1 is started.

MiamiInit does nothing in ppp-mode! "Cannot create
link-level-protokol".
In slip-mode connecting to the dip-server I set up, it cannot find the
Server-IP (1.1.1.1).

The thing is, when I take my own setup, doesn�t matter either ppp2 or
sl0, I get connected to linux-box, but the pppd -detach fails.

I�m tired.... and every time I get this timeout I don�t know where it�s
coming from... makes to connection for testing purposes unusable....

Thank you very much for your help!

Regards
