By default kppp uses /dev/modem as the default modem device.  Usually this is a 
symlink in your /dev direcory to the ttyS* device which is the actual modem.  cd to 
/dev and type 'file modem' make sure it is a symlink to your modem.  You modem will 
more than likly be on ttyS1 (comm 2 in windows).

If it is not there make sure you have a real modem and not a win-modem. It its a 
winmodem there isn't much help for you.

Hi Everyone,
I am using Mandrake 7 and I can't seem to get a dial up conenction going.
kppp says the modem doesn't respond and the system dialer can't connect.
Can anyone run the procedure by me?  The documentation in Mandrake wasn't
helpful at all.  Thanks
