I had bother with this one as well- only I did several things and I'm not sure what I had to do and what I wasted time on (I think it would be around KDE 2.0.1, is that potato?).
I re-jigged my ppp files with pppconfig (or whatever it is), but if wvdial works it's probably not that. I also had to insmod the various slhc.o and ppp*.o (can't remember - think it's ppp_async.o?) Finally I _might_ though I'm not sure have made kppp setuid (The idea being that it worked with another program before, and that I don't much know about linux security) Kppp writes a debug file I think, /var/log/ppp.something.or.other, but it won't hurt to "tail /var/log/syslog" and see if it's the ppp module kicking up a fuss (I had errors about char-major-x when I didn't have the modules loaded) On the other hand I know scratch about it, and played around with it till the early hours as well. Good luck. Ho hum Martin On Thu, 11 Jan 2001, Stewart wrote: > Using KDE 2.0.1, I can't get Kppp to connect to my ISP.
