Dear Jacques, Wolfgang,
I just downloaded the adequate RPM for Fedora 16 containing kppp. From a
root account, I ran strace over kppp. Because there are numerous open
calls, I edited the file and searched for the "kppp" string.
First kppp attempts to open /root/.kde/share/config/kppprc. From this it
knows what it must do, therefore directly proposing for me a connection
my old tiscali provider. Next as I previously specified /dev/modem in
this configuration, it opens /dev/modem and tries to connect. Because
the modem is no longer connected to an analog phone line, kppp fails
with a NO DIALTONE. So its sounds so far very sane.
Yours truly,
Philippe
