Japke,
Try changing pppd permissions:
``
To enable dialout without Root permission do:
$ su - root (not for Ubuntu)
sudo chmod a+x /usr/sbin/pppd
or under Ubuntu related Linuxes
sudo chmod a+x /usr/sbin/pppd
''
in case you see
`` Warning: Could not modify /etc/ppp/pap-secrets: Permission denied''
see http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-sixth/msg04656.html
as ModemData.txt recommeds.
Regards,
Antonio
