Hello Everyone, yes its me again,

I am very close to getting ppp access to my isp, but I am still
having problems,
This is my new connect file called "ans.ppp"

	exec pppd connect 'chat -f chatscript' /dev/ttyS1

This is the file "chatscript"

	ABORT BUSY ABORT "NO CARRIER" TIMEOUT 45 '' ATZ OK /
	ATDT$???????? CONNECT

In case you were wondering my isp uses PAP for authentication.when I run
the file "ans.ppp", all goes well until PAP, then the connection is
terminated, I have set up my /etc/ppp/pap-secrets file as below...

	#PAP authentication file
	#dynamic ip allocation
	#client		server		secret
	username	*		password

Finally here is a copy of my /var/log/messages output when I connect,

Dec 15 16:35:16 localhost pppd[301]: pppd 2.2.0 started by root, uid 0
Dec 15 16:35:39 localhost pppd[301]: Serial connection established.
Dec 15 16:35:40 localhost pppd[301]: Using interface ppp0
Dec 15 16:35:40 localhost pppd[301]: Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/ttyS1
Dec 15 16:35:43 localhost pppd[301]: PAP authentication failure for 
Dec 15 16:35:43 localhost pppd[301]: Connection terminated.
Dec 15 16:35:43 localhost pppd[301]: Exit.

I think I am pretty close to getting this up and running but still need
a little more help, any Ideas why my PAP is failing to authenticate
would be appreciated, also thanks to all the replys I have had to the
other postings in the past,  Richard.
