I'm trying to get my linux (FC5) workstation to dial in to a RAS that

pointers will be much appreciated.

Thanks for responding Mikkel.
The above help assumes that pppd is functioning correctly, which it is not.
You can test this as: pppd dryrun callback 0
You will see "pppd: unrecognized option 'callback'"
As it turns out, the CBCP capability is not enabled in pppd as distibuted in the Fedora RPM. Lame.
You need to recompile it yourself:
Get the source from ftp://ftp.samba.org/pub/ppp/
Extract the archive.
Edit: ./configure
Change: DESTDIR=/usr
./configure
Edit: pppd/Makefile
Change: CBCP=y
make all
make install
Test like: pppd dryrun callback 0
