Hi Rick
This is a FAQ ;-)
you have a few options but I cant help you with kppp
1) and probably most recommended here is to use WvDial
see http://www.connix.com/~dizzy73/WvDial.htm
youll first need to start yast and install gpp which is a C++ compiler its in the
development section of packages. Then get the source for WvDial and simply follow
the read me
2) use the command /etc/suseppp/scripts/ppp-up generic
however using this youll posibly need to adjust your /etc/suseppp/generic.options
file something like this
/dev/modem change to /dev/ttyS? where ? is the # of the modem
/etc/suseppp/generic.options
/dev/ttyS0
19200
crtscts
lock
name "my username"
noipdefault
defaultroute
debug
=================================
also check and possibly try this script
/etc/suseppp/generic.chat
TIMEOUT 60
ABORT "NO CARRIER"
ABORT BUSY
ABORT "NO DIALTONE"
ABORT ERROR
"" +++\dATZ
OK ATDTyourispsphone#
CONNECT
------------------------------------------------------
/etc/ppp/pap-secrets
# client server secret ip address
yourusername * yourpassword
-----------------------------------------------------
that should get you going
