Hi,

I've just installed RH 6.0 which uses the KDE PPP connection tool to use the
modem. When I try to dial my ISP, the modem returns a 'no dialtone' error. I
can hear a dialtone though. Having just converted from windows, there is a
setting to force the modem to dial without waiting for the dialtone, so that
was not a problem with the same modem under windows. Is there a similar
setting somewhere in KPPP or is there a scripting I can write for this
modem?

Thanks for your help in advance!

Elwyn
