i have a modem in a server box that i wish to use of my cable connection goes down, i can dial out using minicom but when i launch kppp (via ssh from another box) i get 'modem doesn't respond), if i launch: #ifup-ppp0 i have to crtl-c to get a prompt back and i get error 35 lookin at /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ppp0 i see this: DEVICE="ppp0" ONBOOT="no" USERCTL="no" MODEMPORT="/dev/modem" LINESPEED="115200" PERSIST="yes" DEFABORT="yes" DEBUG="yes" INITSTRING="ATZ" DEFROUTE="yes" HARDFLOWCTL="yes" ESCAPECHARS="no" PPPOPTIONS="" PAPNAME="***********" REMIP="" NETMASK="" IPADDR="" MRU="" MTU="" DISCONNECTTIMEOUT="5" RETRYTIMEOUT="60" BOOTPROTO="none" PEERDNS="yes" DNS1=194.168.8.100 DNS2=194.168.4.100
should there be a line with the tel. no in here? if not where should the no. to dial be written to launch ipup-ppp0? bascule -- 'There's something not right about this,' said Rincewind. 'What's that?' said the parrot. 'Everything.' (Eric)
