I'm using the Speedtouch 330 with MDK 10.1 Community (and also Fedora
Core 3, with which everything is fine). My connection is via PPPoA using
CHAPS authentication, with VPI=0, VCI=38. I've followed the instructions
for this setup, but my PC won't never connects automatically on booting
(using the /etc/init.d/dial file). However, it will always connect
successfully if I manually type
pppd call speedtch
after logging on. Even more mysteriously, if I include the pppd call
speedtch command in my .bash_profile file, then sometimes my logging on
will result in me being connected and sometimes it won't (apparently
randomly).
Here are some extracts from my syslog file
Firstly, when the 'call' in my .bash_profile file works:

Secondly, here's what happens when the 'call' in my .bash_profile
doesn't work:

So, can anyone tell me why the automatic connection attempt when booting
always fails, and the automatic connection attempt on logging in
using .bash_profile sometimes works and sometimes doesn't? It's got me
baffled!
Thanks,
Ken
