|When pppd failes the log looks like this:
These aren't *all* the pppd debug messages. Be sure you have pppd
configured with the debug option. If you can't find a file in /var/log
that has the detailed PPP messages then you can create a log file as
described below.
You can direct all the chat -v and pppd debug messages to a specific file,
say /var/log/ppp-log, by creating the file with " touch /var/log/ppp-log ",
adding the line
daemon.*;local2.* /var/log/ppp-log
to /etc/syslog.conf, and doing " kill -HUP `pidof syslogd` " to make
syslogd reread the syslog.conf file.
