>What exactly happens when you try to run pppd? Any messages in >/var/adm/messages or /var/adm/debug?
Yes, and even more instructive were messages from /var/adm/daemon.log Eg: Jul 1 20:38:15 destiny pppd[560]: pppd 2.2.0 started by root, uid 0 Jul 1 20:38:15 destiny pppd[560]: Using interface ppp0 Jul 1 20:38:15 destiny pppd[560]: Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/cua1 Jul 1 20:38:15 destiny pppd[560]: sent [LCP ConfReq id=0x1 <mru 1006> <asyncmap 0x0> <magic 0x52f38034> <pcomp> <accomp>] Jul 1 20:38:15 destiny pppd[560]: rcvd [LCP ConfReq id=0x7 <asyncmap 0x0> <magic 0x9710b401> <pcomp> <accomp>] Jul 1 20:38:15 destiny pppd[560]: sent [LCP ConfAck id=0x7 <asyncmap 0x0> <magic 0x9710b401> <pcomp> <accomp>] Jul 1 20:38:15 destiny pppd[560]: rcvd [LCP ConfReq id=0x8 <asyncmap 0x0> <magic 0x9710b401> <pcomp> <accomp>] Jul 1 20:38:15 destiny pppd[560]: sent [LCP ConfAck id=0x8 <asyncmap 0x0> <magic 0x9710b401> <pcomp> <accomp>] Jul 1 20:38:15 destiny pppd[560]: rcvd [LCP ConfAck id=0x1 <mru 1006> <asyncmap 0x0> <magic 0x52f38034> <pcomp> <accomp>] Jul 1 20:38:15 destiny pppd[560]: sent [IPCP ConfReq id=0x1 <addr 192.1.1.1> <compress VJ 0f 01>] Jul 1 20:38:42 destiny last message repeated 9 times Jul 1 20:38:45 destiny pppd[560]: IPCP: timeout sending Config-Requests >Remove the eth0 entries by using ifconfig and try to run pppd.
