Mike, thanks, but Lawson has already solved this - I can't read! I hadn't created /dev/ppp because I kept reading the Changes file as "if you are using devfs" when it actually says "if you are NOT using devfs". Sigh. Ken On Tue, 3 Apr 2001, Mike Ricketts wrote: > > .config looks fine > What

.config looks fine What version of modutils? What version of pppd? Do you have /dev/ppp? Does it work if you insert the relevant ppp modules by hand first (ppp_generic, ppp_async)? On Sun, 1 Apr 2001, Ken Moffat wrote: > Hi, Mike, > I've finally admitted defeat with ppp. I guess it's somethin

Hi, Mike, I've finally admitted defeat with ppp. I guess it's something wrong in my .config, but I can't see what. On Sun, 25 Mar 2001, Mike Ricketts wrote: > Does this help? > > [mike@oakley ~]$ uname -a > Linux oakley.chf 2.4.2 #1 SMP Sun Mar 4 22:05:17 GMT 2001 i686 unknown > [mike@oakley ~
