PPP, Linux and my ISP

Hello

I use minicom to connect my PC under Linux to my ISP.
The connection is OK, and minicom asks me for my username, password, and
I write ppp, to use the ppp protocol.
But the negociation doesn't work, and after that I have a "NO CARRIER"?

What should I do ?

thank you

Yeah my minicom will connect and ask for user then password and then I get a
bunch of garbage and it disconnects. I cant get my ppp-on to dial at all.
What up wit dat?

You can't use minicom (very easily) to make a ppp connection.   What you need
to do is
setup pppd and chat scripts.

Or get a simple ppp dialing program like wvdial or something.  I think
wvdial works quite well for someone that wants to get a ppp connect set
up.  I use X-isp because I like its approach but if someone has kde
running they can attempt with kppp.  My success rate with kppp has been
less than stellar since I seem to be continually be the victim of "the ppp
daemon has unexpectedly died".  I feel kinda sorry for that daemon since
its lifetime is so brief when using kppp :)

You need to do some debugging...

Try to send the /var/log/messages

1. Trunpet Winsock -> ppp[0 1] ->linux -> ppp[1 0] -> isp

OK, I've read (and re-read) all of the pertinent HOW-TOs, README files,
Linux Network System Administrator Guide, etc. and can't seem to figure
this one out.

My wifes `puter is (still) running Windoze 3.1 and has Trumpet Winsock
on it. I'm running Linux 2.0.29 and have a `stable' (been working for a
year or so...) pppd running to connect to my isp. We have a serial
connection between `puters (115200) between serial ports. I want to
connect her machine with a ppp connection and route this through my
modem to the isp. Every time I log on from her machine (using a username
that is supposed to run pppd as a `shell', like the HOW-TO sez) pppd
runs and then dies.

Is this a proxy-ARP problem? Every thing I read talks about using pppd
as a server and routing it to an ethernet connection, nothing about
passing 1 pppd process to another.

Any Ideas?
