Once upon a time, some amino acids started clinging together and
reproducing.  Millions of years later, after some fantasticly improbable
events, and evolutionary steps, Mark Sutton wrote this:

Yup... It wasn't too hard, either :)

Cool. It rocks for techies like me:)

I assume this is set like this every time you boot?

>> using a Nexr 56kflex modem
Hmm... Nex'r... Now whereve I heard that before. No-where I can think...
Oh, yes, my work sells about 50 of those a week. And about 400 Nex'r
products per week (I'd estimate). Did you get it from M2?

Anyway, I'm just using the ppp-on, ppp-off, and /etc/ppp/ppp-on-dialer
scripts that come with pppd. I edited them for my hostname, password
etc. And it worked first time.

If you want, I'll mail you the scripts I'm using. You want?

P.S. If you are having problems, error messages and the scripts you use
would be useful.
