* be sure pppd is the binary and not a script. 
* be sure that pppd  is setuid root 
* be sure  /etc/ppp/options exist and there are no wrong entries, when
you are not sure, leave it empty. 
* uncheck the option use lock file 
* remove the  lock  in /etc/ppp/options 
* if the symbolic link /dev/modem causes problems,. 
            Use the real port ( -> setup->modem->device) 
            ttyS0 -> COM1 
            ttyS1 -> COM2 
            ttyS2 -> COM3 
            ttyS3 -> COM4
