You need to make sure that your initialization string "fixes" the DCE rate at 115K and that you use the STTY SPD_VHI option in /etc/rc.d/rc.local to adjust the UART to reflect this. The modem to modem rate is handled via "probes" between the local and remote modem, and will vary based upon line conditions. If your NVRAM modem settings were reset, the modem's rate when communicating via the UART to the computer will vary along with the modem to modem rate. This will give any comm program headaches. -JMS
Re: [newbie] The pppd daemon died unexpectedly!
Hi -- Don't know if this will solve the problem, but I too had the message "The pppd daemon died unexpectedly." Tried NOAUTH, and it didn't work. What DID work was greatly increasing the timeout from 60 to 600 seconds.

Re: [newbie] The pppd daemon died unexpectedly!
Tried the NOAUTH but no luck. As it stands now I've temporarily given up on S. W. Bell. Trying now to access my Earthlink ISP account. This one does the following: 1. Dials and handshakes 2. Connects 3. get string as follows: f~f~ffxx~f~ffxfxxxfffxxx~~f~'ffxfffxfffxff~xxATZ 4. put in string: Expect ogin: SendELN/dreamcrafts Expect sword: Send (the password) Without the string I get #3 above and then timeout. With string of course it waits for each line, times out, redials, then waits for next line in string. Obviously not getting through to send anything on the string. I think that part is useless. Tried PAP, CHAP and terminal based settings. Also checked data in various files for correct server xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, secrets files, .conf files, etc. I'm still missing something. Now it dials, connects, returns data, but it's gibberish. Once over that hurdle, I'll have it licked. I remember seeing in the archives someplace talk about the gibberish, but haven't been able to find it so far. Anyone remember and point me to that? Thanks again so much. B. B.
