	Hi there..

	I have had an internal modem installed in my system and have upgraded to a
Netcomm 56Ultra, along with this I went from RH5 to RH5.2 (APC) and a funny
keyboard with extra keys...

	But, here is the problem.

	I run the pppd program, the options and chat scripts have not changed, the
serial port has been configured correctly using "setserial" and the /dev/modem
has been linked to the new modem port.

	Dialing the modem is no problem as in /var/log/messages tells me that the chat
script is running and that I have the other end logged in and running the PPP
service, this is where my problems begin.

	All I keep getting are IPCP timeout... below is an extract from my
/var/log/messages file
