This one had me swinging for a few days, until I realized that a lot of stuff going onwas shell script files! Try to edit ppp-on and read it and determine the next script it calls, then check it out too. Say hi to George and Gracie for me. hehehehe (you'll know what that means when you get there) Make sure that everything jives, with your setup. My silly system kept calling 555-1212 because it was the placeholder in the script! It was driving me nutz! I kept editing the configuration files that pppsetup made for me, and that didn't sem to make a difference. I thought it was my modem init string, I had an ampersand in there and thought that maybe I wasn't escaping it correctly. But that wasn't it at all. Now if I can only get my other system, with Caldera loaded into it to be a bit more responsive. And it says right on it "EXTEND your system to the WORLD" Yeah right! Slackware rulz! Oh boy, you really DO want help don't you? Look at all of the cross postings this is gonna make, OK, this time.... But you make me feel like such a SPAMmer! Posted from Slackware 3.4
