Hi Echan,
I'm using a Lucent Win Modem. It worked fine under XP, is seen by Linux but just sits there and won't get on with the business of dialling out. Perhaps it's not configured.
Do I need to use kinternet to do the actual dailling? I have tried to get kinternet to dialout but it gives the error 'Connection to the server is refused. Maybe smpppd is not running.
So how to I get smpppd running and what should the server settings be.
George
