[expert] modem on boot anyone,,, please??

[Franki]

Hi all,

I have a little problem I really need help with..

When I was using RH6.2 it was really easy to set up ppp to dial on boot..

now that I have mdk7.2 I am havin no luck at all, I can dial in using kppp
and gnoppp and they work fine. but not on boot,,

I tried the ppp0 settings in linuxconf and set it to start boot, but it
doesn't appear to be able to access the modem and times out..

all the dialups are set to ttys0 or com 1,, which is correct, and even
though I am not using it, /dev/modem points to the same place..

Can anyone make any suggestions that I might try as this is driving me nuts
and is quite desperate...

many thanx one and all...


regards


Frank
