Hi all,

Trying to switch my stuff from FreeBSD to NetBSD, so:

my isp file looks like:

/dev/tty00 38400 crtscts
netmask 255.255.255.255
persist noauth nolog defaultroute
noproxyarp
connect '/usr/sbin/chat -v -f /etc/ppp/peers/chat-isp'
noauth

my chat-isp looks like:

ABORT "NO CARRIER"
ABORT "VOICE"
ABORT "BUSY"
ABORT "NO DIALTONE"
ABORT "FAX"
""ATZ
OK ATDTxxxxxxxxx

and after doing

pppd call isp

I get:

[date/time]...... Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/tty00
[date/time]...... Modem hangup
[date/time]...... Connection terminated

So I guess, that pppd isn't happy starting without a set CD signal on
the modem ?
Where can I change it ?

And, where to put my login name & password ?

Any help is very welcome ;-)

cheers
