I want to connect to computers over PPP. I installed them fresh out of the box.

Now I get a problem, that apparently ppp can not connect to the serial line.

If I startup pppd I do not see anything like ppp0<-->/dev/ttyS1 in the log.

If I do a "ifconfig ppp0" I get: "ppp0: error fetching interface 
information: Device not found".

On stopping the pppd I get a message: "kernel: rs_close: bad serial port 
count; tty->count is 1, state->count is 2".

There is nothing wrong with the serial ports, I can start kermit and talk 
to a modem connected to the port.

I have a bad feeling, that I am missing something very obvious, but can't 
find out what it is.

Can anyone shine a light on this matter???

Thanks, Koos.
