I have this exact same problem and I can not figure it out either.
Nine is on a portable that we did not have Modem card for at first,
but we got one later. I sent in and tried to set up PPP the same as
I have done on other boxes, but this is all the messages I get.

I am trying to configure a ppp link to my isp from my computer. I am
running RedHat 6.2.
My isp uses pap.
When I tried to activate the ppp link I got the following message on
stderr:
Failed to activate /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ppp0
I also found the following lines in /var/log/m

I have the same problem. I found out I wasn't using the latest verison of
initscripts and I was optimistic that the update would fix it but I haven't
done so yet. If you are really using 6.2 them I assume it incorporates
the update. Why don't you check the version ('rpm -qi initscripts' and
