Firstly apologies I wasnt aware that attachments were not allowed, it just seemed an easyway of showing what I was getting, I will refrain in future.

Results of    ls -l  /etc/ppp/*secrets
-rw------------  1 root  dip  94  2006-08-29  01:51  /etc/ppp/chap-secrets
-rw------------  1 root  dip  1750  2006-08-29  01:51  /etc/ppp/pap-secrets

restored setting to +pap

now back to original results  with time out error 16

in regards to
pap-max-authreq, pap-restart, & pap-timeout.... I assume that if these are not set then it will go to the default settings for them........ they are not set at present.

with my VERY limited knowledge of this I cannot see any other settings within the options that could be set to change what is happening.

Regarding Minicom...
I downloaded the foloowing files
minicom_2.1.4,woody.1.diff.gz
minicom_2.1.4,woody.1.dsc
minicom_2.1.4,woody.1.-i386.deb
I guess I need to put these in a directory and then run dpkg -i * as I did for wvdial.........
am I correct please??

Regards  Alan
