Ed see http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-sixth/msg04656.html You may have to make /etc/ppp/pap-secrets & chap-secrets world writable for ONE login. I have encountered this on a CLeveland ATT.net server, but not other ATT.net servers.. ALso browse through Jacques PostInstall Howto at see http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/. It most likely NOT a driver issue. Go towards the end of " man pppd" for the explanation of error codes. MarvS scanModem mantainer On 4/20/07, Ed Stokes <support-volta@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:
