The only use for minicom in setting up a ppp connection is to find out what sort of authentication your isp uses. To set up ppp, run pppconfig, answer all the questions, and then type 'pon' to start the connection and 'poff' to end it. > But, how do I specify which COM port the chat program should use? The chat program doesn't use COM ports at all. It just talks to its standard input and output. pppd sees to it that chat gets connected to the serial port. You don't need to worry about that, though. pppconfig will set it all up. -- John Hasler [EMAIL PROTECTED] (John Hasler) Dancing Horse Hill Elmwood, WI
