    Everything seems to work fine on this new install of SuSE professional
    9.2 - except....

    Dial up will not work. I installed a specifically linux compatible
    modem. It shows up as configured in Yast, and the Kinternet icon is in
    the system tray.

    When I click the icon it momentarily shows a little connecting graphic
    then returns to normal. The log output shows:

    Status is: disconnected
    trying to connect to smpppd
    connect to smppd
    Status is: disconnected
    Status is: connecting
    Status is: disconnected
    pppd[0] died: pppd options error (exit code 2)

    The pppd man pages say that the exit code 2 is "An error was detected in
    processing the options given such as two mutually exclusive options."

    I've checked the modem configuration options, and they appear to be
    fine. Are there options to be set in a config file for pppd?

    All comments are appreciated,

    Regis Matejcik
