I have done everything that it suggests: Group=118 (netdial) root.netdial ownership on /usr/bin/ppp chmod'd to 4550 on /usr/bin/ppp Checked ppp.sys for syntax errors, and deleted it, and retyped it again and again... Still nada.. <shrug> Can the ppp software only work in one direction? I have a dialout going on ppp0, and want to do a dialin on ppp1... possible? Eric
