The cuaX devices are outdated. You don't need them, so debian doesn't create them. You can use "pon" to cennect and "poff" to disconnect on debian. These commands use two config files: /etc/ppp.chatscript and /etc/ppp.options_out Check, that ppp.options_out uses the ttyS1 device. Also add "debug" to this line. the debug output goes to /var/log/ppp.log. Then edit ppp.chatscript to match the lines you get at dialin. Try this and refer back if you have trouble. Give us the lines from /var/log/ppp.log then. Hmm, this could get difficult if you can't access a dos drive to save it to. Do mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /floppy cp /var/log/ppp.log /floppy umount /floppy to save the file on a floppy. > My UNIX is very weak so I am hacking through this the best I can. Come on, you created a device using a command I would have to look up deep in the docs (well, I would have done cd /dev ; ./MAKEDEV cua1 ). I also never used dip, so you definitly used two commands I know nil about. And all this with just the base system installed. Pretty cool.
