Hi Isabelle
I had this error. I did not have the last line of my negotiation
right. You will need to know what your isp expects to be told to
start the negotiation to set up a ppp connection. If the ISP isn't
sent the signal to commence negotiating, your ppp thinks the ISP
isn't 8 bit clean, and gives up.
It looks like you are very close. You will need to find some
terminal emulation and talk to the isp directly to find what it
expects. I had a copy of Liux Kermit stashed in my files, so I used
that have that ftp site handy. I just looked it up, here is a url
you may start from:
http://www.cc.columbia.edu/kermit
or maybe
http://www.cc.columbia.edu/kermit/mskermit.html
