Hi all,

I've gotten a little further getting connected to AT&T's ISP... I do now
know that they use PAP to auhtenticate their users...

Again, here is the information I have gathered so far:

I ran the following command:

/usr/sbin/pppd /dev/modem 115200 debug connect "/usr/sbin/chat -v '' AT
OK \
ATDT9725294410 CONNECT '\d\c'"

which details how to find out what your ISP uses... basically the
command to test the ISP with whilst logging to /var/log/ppp via syslogd,
the ppp log showed the following

May 23 02:20:39 ahbaid pppd[819]: pppd 2.3.11 started by root, uid 0

I read the PPP howto and modem howto as well as followed Running Linux..

but alas, I'm still lost.. my modem is on /dev/modem linked to
/dev/ttyS1, I tested it with both minicom and wvdial and it dials
fine...

Here are my configuration files:

1) att-chap-script (/etc/ppp/att-chap-script)

#!/bin/sh
# att-chat-script: a program for dialing AT&T ISP
exec chat -v                                  \
     '' ATZ                                      \
     OK ATDT972-529-4410        \
     CONNECT  ''

2) ppp-on (/etc/ppp/ppp-on)

exec /usr/sbin/pppd /dev/modem 38400 lock crtscts noipdefault \
     user [EMAIL PROTECTED]                           \
     defaultroute 0.0.0.0:0.0.0.0 connect att-chat-script

3) chap-secrets (/etc/ppp/chap-secrets) same for pap-secrets

# Secrets for authentication using CHAP
# client        server  secret                  IP addresses
[EMAIL PROTECTED] * att-user-password


I also setup /etc/wvdial.conf for use with wvdial as follows:

[Dialer Defaults]
Modem = /dev/modem
Baud = 57600
Init = ATZ
Init2 = AT S11=50
Phone = 972-529-4410
Username = [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Password = att-user-password

[Dialer phone2]
Phone = 972-529-4410

[Dialer shh]
Init3 = ATM0

When I run wvdial the following output is produced:

--> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.41
--> Initializing modem.
--> Sending: ATZ
ATZ
OK
--> Sending: AT S11=50
AT S11=50
OK
--> Modem initialized.
--> Sending: ATDT 972-529-4410
--> Waiting for carrier.
ATDT 972-529-4410
CONNECT 31200/ARQ/V34/LAPM/V42BIS
--> Carrier detected.  Waiting for prompt.
Returning not ok!!
--> Disconnecting at Mon May 22 22:27:26 2000

Now, I guess AT&T does not retun a prompt.... am I right? If so what do
I do from here...

Any help or suggestions are welcome...

thanks,

Ahbaid.
