Diald not dialing out

Diald not dialing out

[Mirco Ellis]

Guys I don't know what to do anymore! Diald is running with the slip
connection set as default but there is no way I can get it to dial out. The
reason for this is, I think, is because, for the life of me, I can not get
the chat script to communicate with the modem.Here is what my chat script
looks like:

 ABORT ERROR
ABORT BUSY
ABORT "NO CARRIER"
ABORT "NO DIALTONE"
REPORT CONNECT
"" "AT" "OK" "AT&F" "OK" "ATS0=1" "OK" "AT&W" "OK"
"ATD0219153600"
TIMEOUT 60
CONNECT

When I run this /usr/sbin/chat -f  /etc/ppp/chat-script it gets to AT and
then just hangs . After a while it drops me back to the shell.

Manually I can dial out with minicom and bring up ppp. Any ideas.

Regards

Mirco

Hi Mirco,

When you run chat on the console, it's talking to the console, not the 
modem.  It's expecting the responses from the keyboard...

Post your diald.conf and any diald-related entries from your syslog, 
they might provide a clue to the problems you're having.

Mark.

Thanks Mark. I am busy reinstalling the system. Managed to mess it up pretty
good. I will give it another bash, now that I know what's up with
chat(duhhhh). Will definately post ther elated files if I run into errors
again.

Thanks
Mirco
