Hi all I've got ppp working fine, using scripts linuxconf generated. But diald doesn't like it.

It tries to bring up the connection when it should, but then bombs out when starting pppd:

May 15 00:55:32 passage pppd[5515]: pppd 2.3.11 started by root, uid 0 May 15 00:55:32 passage pppd[5515]: Using interface ppp0 May 15 00:55:32 passage pppd[5515]: Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/ttyS2 May 15 00:55:35 passage pppd[5515]: Remote message: ^@ May 15 00:55:36 passage pppd[5515]: Peer is not authorized to use remote address 212.41.40.37 May 15 00:55:37 passage pppd[5515]: Hangup (SIGHUP) May 15 00:55:37 passage pppd[5515]: Modem hangup May 15 00:55:37 passage pppd[5515]: Connection terminated.

Normally (if I run pppd from the shell without diald) I get the 'Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/ttyS2' line then it tells me local and remote addresses and off I surf...

any ideas?

Checked the diald/ppp howtos and FAQs and they don't mention it...?

Cheers Neil
