scripts. The only thing to do here is to make sure you are logging the

chat conversation between you Linux PC and the server into your syslog

(/var/log/messages) and then go through this <I

sure there are no mistakes.You may need to dial into the ppp server manually to check

things out again.</P

and bear in mind that we humans have a tendency to read what we THINK we

have typed - not what is actually there!</P
