Hi all I cant seem to get wvdial (under gentoo) to connect ot my isp (ukonline) this is the first time i have had to use 56k and i dont know what to do! i rebooted to my old suse 8.0 installation and got kinternet to dial up np. heer are the settings i am useing for wvdial in gentoo:


[Dialer Defaults]
Modem = /dev/ttyS2
Baud = 115200
Init1 = ATZ
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
ISDN = 0
Modem Type = Analog Modem
Phone = 08089933259
Username = mr*******
Password = *********

heer is what happens when i try to connect:

bash-2.05b# wvdial

--> man pppd explains pppd error codes in more detail.
--> Try again and look into /var/log/messages and the wvdial and pppd man pages for more information.

Heer is the output from kinternet (which connects sucessfully):

how can i configure this connection to work with wvdial in gentoo?

/etc/ppp/pap-secrets and /etc/ppp/chap-secrets are both empty files under gentoo. Is this a bad thing?
