Hello all,

I am trying to set up my linux box for dial out ppp connection to my
ISP, my providor has dynamic IP allocation and does not prompt me for
login or password, i have set up my modem and tested it using minicom
and it connects ok (the pc speaker makes pretty sounds etc),
then i see garbage on the screen, so this is working.
When i try to connect using pppd my log says that connect script has
failed. I have heard that a script for this type of ISP is easy but
I have no experience, could anyone help me with this ?
maybe a sample script or something would be nice. HELP!!

Thanks, Richard Ashton.
