Arghhhhh, I've tryed all sort's of different things and options, and now
I'm at my wit's end. The problem is that when I get the bsd machine to call
my isp, the modem connect's and after a short while the line drop's. Can
anyone give me any tips? Here's a few of the config files that I've setup.

I've been calling ppp like this 'ppp -auto qonline'. the isp use's the
logon/password system (no chap/pap) and then print's a few things (a
message with mail waiting or not, your accoutn status, and ten your ip.
After that the PPP session is started.)

(I have trimed out bit's that are not needed for this msg.)
