> I'm a PPP newbie and my experince with CS 1.2 helped me remain
> ignorant. I simply ran the red hat PPP config tool and everything "just
> worked".
>
> Now here I am with YDL 2.0, same ISP and hardware configuration (G3 B/W),
> and I can't seem to get PPP up and working. Here is the "tail" of /var/messages
> when I used the 'debug' option of the PPP config tool to establish the
> connection.
