PPP Scripts

[OS]

Can anyone give me any pointers on creating a PPP script? I have a LT Winmodem that now dials thanks to Lucent finally releasing some source.

KPPP should create you a script, if you are running slackware, pppsetup may be another choice http://www.linuxnewbie.org/ubb/biggrin.gif

Unfortunately lucent did NOT release source for their winmodems. The only thing available is an alpha-version of a binary module. Worse yet, it wasn't even released by lucent - some insider released it without lucent's express permission. Still, it does work I know but it has no support, is not directly compatible with many kernels and there may never be another update - although with linux growing I think eventually they will... just when is another question.

Sorry I didn't answer your question. I recommend using kppp from kde - a very simple way.

The LFS howto used to have good directions on setting up PPP, don't know if it is still in the most recent version tho.

I am using kppp, once I connect I get "pppd unexpendly died"

Sources are available and the linmodem community has made support available. Sean Walbran and Marvin Stod~(i cant remember or pronouce his name) and Mark (i cant remember his name) have helped many people out as the new sources will work in 2.4 tests.
