Re: 386 and pppd



[ PPP log tells us `script failed' + minicom has some unexplained characters 
popping in ]   ==>   [ there is a problem with the serial device which is not 
PPP related ] ?

Is there a way for you to try and make a serial connection to another machine 
(using mgetty or something similar)? Perhaps set up some fax tool (mgetty?) 
and try to send a fax to one of the company fax machines?

You might need to explore in the modem docs/web what does the jumper 
Win/no_Win does; and perhaps install the isapnp tools, testing them with the 
jumper set to each position. You should also look for the setserial script or 
command and examine it. Does the bios of the 586 announces that it has 
found/configured a PNP device?

Are you sure there is no hint in the Modem-HOWTO?  


hey guys,
 
I found a RH5.2 disk ad installed it on the 386 computer. Well it didnt work either. I also found a freebsd disk and it failed to connect either, with the same problem.
