I am running Corel Linux OS Deluxe. Corel Linux is powered by the Debian
Linux distribution and a set of complimentary tools & utilities from GNU.
I tried to setup a Internal Robotics modem
(33KC) on COM2 using the network / dial-up option
When I connect to the ISP,
I get Modem ready, Dialing,
Logging on to network.
Then I get Linux ERROR:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The PPPD daemon died unexpectedly!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
How do I fix this problem?
Hardware:
150 MHz Pentium CPU, 13 GB harddrive,
Using External Robotics Modem on COM2.
ISP is IWAYNET (Local ISP)
Primary DNS 198-30-29-7
Secondary DNS 198-30-29-8
Thank You for any help or suggestions.

You might try looking in the file /var/log/messages or similar (I don't
know Corel - look around in that directory for a relevant file). There may
be some messages from pppd that would give you more info.

You might also try asking in comp.os.linux.networking - I'll crosspost
this and set followups accordingly.
