[sarge with vmlinuz-2.4.26-1-686] I am in the process of switching from RH9 to Debian/sarge on my home machine (yes!). Under RH, I use 'kppp' successfully to login to my ISP (university) modem pool ... no problems.
However, no matter how I create the PPP connection under 'sarge' (/usr/sbin/pppd, kppp, ...), I can get no further that the authorization stage. Using 'pppd' is giving me the most control/info about my attempts. Here's what I see in /var/log/messages (date/time &c eliminated): <chat script sends "ppp", username, and password> ... ... ... LCP: timeout sending Config-Requests Connection terminated. Receive serial link is not 8-bit clean: Problem: all had bit 7 set to 0 <============= Hangup (SIGHUP) Exit. I have searched and read anything I could find on the WWW, but have encountered which has solved my problem. What is *most* perplexing is the different behavior compared to RH9 (kernel 2.4.20-31.9). What could be different between the two? I'm sure that the Debian crowd will have useful ideas!
