May be not the right kind of question for here? but i am baffled I have two machines side by side, both running Debian. Older machine had RedHat at one stage.
Both configured with ppconfig. Both appear to have identical files, except that one uses ttyS0 and the other ttyS1 for modem. One connects without a problem. other cannot. /var/log/messages gives identical output until "Serial connection established" Then one has hangup SIGHUP Occasionally it will go the next step to : Using ppp) / Connect pppO <--> ttyS1 and then hangup SIGHUP. the winkinblinkin go through to the penultimate--last light no flicker. History: it stopped working under RedHat also--which is one reason I put Debian on it, to be able to compare the two machines. Not essential, but I do like a backup, especially if I upgrade Woody--afraid to do so in case it breaks :-( Just do not know what to try next -- Geoffrey -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
