rehat linux9.0 ppp error messages



hi, all
these days, I tried to test ppp link between two redhat
linux9.0(using null modem connection), acoording Chapter 29. Using PPP
across a null modem (direct serial) connection in PPP-HWOTO,,
but when I type
[root@localhost ~]# pppd /dev/ttyS0 nodetach
I got the following messages:
