Well, that's not quite enuf info to help solve the problem. But if you
turn on debugging of chat, it will help a lot. Add a line like the
following to your /etc/syslog.conf file:
local2.* /path/to/chat-log-file
Then, use `ps -ax' to find the PID for syslog, and restart it:
kill -HUP <pid>
Next, make sure that the line in the connect script that invokes chat has
the -v option specified (v = "verbose output to local2.debug")
Finally, try again, and then look at the chat-log-file. You'll see the
expect strinbgs as well as what was actually returned. If you still can't
figure it out, post the chat-log-file (or E-mail to me privately) and
we'll see what we can do.
