I have done this. I have checked that indeed my modem is on COM2, and so therefore, I set pppconfig to /dev/ttys1. However, I anm now getting the following error (...and I dont have the foggiest notion why I am getting it ) : "/usr/sbin/pppd: This system lacks kernel support for PPP. This could be because the PPP kernel module is not loaded, or because the kernel is not configured for PPP. See the README.linux file in the ppp-2.3.5 distribution." Has anyone else had this sort of error before ?
