Have you tried the package wvdial that is in _some_ of the Debian distributions? (Certainly in frozen).
Very easy to configure and it seems to work. IMO the ppp stuff is a nightmare - before finding wvdial I had ended up with a one-line script with all my ppp options in it as I couldn't get ppp to work any longer (happened when I upgraded to a newer version on the ppp packages) Regards, Ian W Karachi, Pakistan email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] IB> Thanks to all that try to help in my problem with ppp and Netscape.
