Hi Duncan

The good news here is that I'm now e-mailing you via Linux!  I've ended up 
running the Network Configuration tool by clicking on the icon at the top of 
the toolbar.  I had to enter my details again manually and here I am online.

However, as Paul stated, I expected the modem to come onstream automatically at 
boot up.  It still isn't doing this and I have to re-enter the details in the 
Network Configuration tool each time to start it up again.  So I'm not quite 
100% there.  Could this be something to do with the boot script?  I noticed the 
version Paul entered is different to mine.

I've now added "debug" to the command line as suggested and copied it to 
\etc\ppp\peers\speedtch to overwrite the original.  I couldn't remember how to 
edit the file itself at that location (or even see its contents).  Can you 
remand how to best to view the contents and edit this file again if necessary?

Thanks for your help.  Almost there!

Roger.
