Help!


  I've spent many many hours trying to get AmiTCP to work with my
internet provider. I have - A1200 / DKB 68030/50Mhz/MMU/FPU / 10 Meg
RAM / WB3.0 / AmiTCP4.0 demo / PPP demo software / Socket lib software.

 Heres what happens:

  I install socket.library, AmiTCP and PPP device, making all of the
changes required to ppp0.config in SANA2 (in envarc:), startnet, stopnet,
etc. 
  I open a shell and run startnet and get:
-------------------------------------------------------------------
13.BOOT:System> startnet

AmiTCP/IP version 4.0 demo

S2_ONLINE: Resource allocation failure
AmiTCP:Bin/Online failed returncode 10
13.BOOT:System>
-------------------------------------------------------------------

  A "dialling" window comes up and shows my dialscript, but the
modem does not change states, and does not dial. It does do the
"ATZ" and WAIT "OK" command, so it is getting executed. Arexx is
properly installed, and WaitForPort does work properly, as tested
from a shell.
  Heres what SnoopDOS shows during this process:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  As you can see, bsdsocket.library is not being created. Again, ARexx is
running and my Rexxc path is properly defined etc.

  Does anyone have any ideas? All help will be appreciated!

                                                        Thanks!
