I know that, but the comment in the default options file says: # Please do not disable this setting. It is expected to be standard in # future releases of pppd. Use the call option (see manpage) to disable # authentication for specific peers. Which is why I left it enabled in the options file and set "noauth" in the calling file. > > Contents of /etc/ppp/chatfile > > > > ABORT "NO CARRIER" > > ABORT "NO DIALTONE" > > ABORT "ERROR" > > ABORT "NO ANSWER" > > ABORT "BUSY" > > "" "AT" > Try AT&F > instead AT&F doesn't seem to do anything. OTOH, it doesn't cause any errors, but since pppd doesn't even spawn chat during this failure, it's exceedingly unlikely it would make a difference. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ppp" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
