I have recently decided to connect to the Internet, so I got the following
software:
- AmiTCP 4.2
- PPP 1.44 Registered
Then I subscribed with a local provider and installed everything. I chose the
following setup:
Dynamic IP address with PPP/PAP
The installation procedure seemed to go straight, but...
...there is a little problem: every time I type 'startnet' I get the following
message:
Topo Gigio[2]% startnet DEBUG

SHELL: ***Break
AmiTCP couldn't be started!
And, when I type 'online ppp0', I get the following:
S2_ONLINE: Device driver is offline (Unit is currently offline)
The messages are not very explanatory to me, so I have absolutely no idea of
what happened.
I tried to monitor the call with SnoopDOS, but it also is not very
informative...
I read an re-read AmiTCP manual and PPP docs, but I don't really know what's
going wrong.
Is there anybody who could help me? I could also send AmiTCP log file and every
config file
created by the installation scripts.
I made all the work on the following configuration:
HARDWARE:
Amiga3000 25Mhz , 2MB Chip + 8MB Fast
HD Quantum 200Mb + HD Fujitsu 540Mb (SCSI II)
External SCSI II Sanyo CD-ROM
External Modem JET 28800
PICASSO II Graphic Board
Kickstart 3.1
RUNNING SOFTWARE
PowerSnap 2.2
PowerCache 37.64
PowerData 1.0b
Magic Menu 1.22
VMM 3.3
YAK 2.11
Toolmanager 2.1b
MagicSelector 1.80
I also replaced FFS with AMIFILESAFE PRO on ALL my partition (except VMM's)
