I posted the following message on the linux-net list before I realized that
there was a ppp-specific list. My apologies if this is a repeat for you. If
anyone has any suggestions, I'd greatly appriciate hearing about them.

I'm having a bit of trouble configuring PPP to work on a 2.0.30 Slackware
install. I have downloaded and compiled the kernel and executable for PPP
2.3.2. While the modem dials and negotiations, and starts to set up PPP, it
hangs part of the way through. My debug file reports the following (the
'passwordhere' replacing my real password):

with my ppp-on looking like:

#!/bin/sh
#
# Script to initiate a ppp connection. This is the first part of the
# pair of scripts. This is not a secure pair of scripts as the codes
# are visible with the 'ps' command.  However, it is simple.
#
# These are the parameters. Change as needed.
TELEPHONE=4192501       # The telephone number for the connection
# Export them so that they will be available at 'ppp-on-dialer' time.
export TELEPHONE 
# This is the location of the script which dials the phone and logs
# in.  Please use the absolute file name as the $PATH variable is not
# used on the connect option.  (To do so on a 'root' account would be
# a security hole so don't ask.)
DIALER_SCRIPT=/etc/ppp/ppp-on-dialer
# Initiate the connection
exec /usr/sbin/pppd debug demand modem crtscts /dev/ttyS0 38400 \
        asyncmap 20A0000 escape FF kdebug 0 10.10.10.1:10.10.10.2 \
        noipdefault name internet.usinet.wern1 netmask 255.255.255.0 \
         defaultroute connect $DIALER_SCRIPT

I have expanded the lcp-max-configure to 30 in my options file. Other than
that, it remains unchanged. Oh, I almost forgot, the dialin goes to
ibm.net, in case anyone knows any dirty tricks associated with that
particular ISP. Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,
