Laurent,
Your ipaq is not a high tech paperweight. This mailing list is only for discussion of the bootldr, however, the problem you are having is with PPP running on top of Linux. You would be more likely to get an answer if you asked the question on the familiar mailing list.

Subject: Can't establish PPP connection from host PC to iPAQ
Classification: Unclassified
Dear gentleman,
I would like to establish a PPP connection between my GNU/Linux host PC and my iPAQ 3630.
The GNU/Linux Familiar has successfully been installed and I can easy login as "root" user by
providing the default "rootme" password.
I've followed the instructions given onto the web site http://www.handhelds.org:8080/wiki/PPPHowto.
What I've done
On the iPAQ
1. Resett the iPAQ by pushing the recessed reset button while holding the center of the joypad
2. Put the iPAQ into its serial cradle
On the iPAQ via the minicom terminal emulation running on the GNU/Linix host
3. Launch the minicom with the following command minicom -c on
After the boot prompt
4. Type the boot command to reboot the iPAQ
boot> boot
5. Enter the login
familiar login: root
6. Enter the pass word
Password: rootme
I've the following prompt
#
Type the following commands
7. echo "ppp::101:101:PPP User:/home/ppp:/usr/sbin/pppd"
8.echo "-detach defaultroute noauth local nocrtscts lock lcp-echo-interval 5 lcp-echo-failure 3 /dev/ttySA0 115200" >> /etc/ppp/options
9. echo "slhc ppp_generic ppp_async" >> /etc/modules
10. cd /lib/modules/kernel-version/kernle/drivers/net
11. insmod slhc.o
12. insmod ppp_generic.o
13. insmod ppp_async.o
14. cd /lib/modules/2.4.18-rmk3/kernle/drivers/net
15. insmod slhc.o
16. insmod ppp_generic.o
17. insmod ppp_async.o
18. echo "alias char-major-108 ppp_generic " >>/etc/modules.conf
19. echo "alias /dev/ppp ppp_generic" >>/etc/modules.conf
20. echo "alias tty-ldisc-3 ppp_async" >>/etc/modules.conf
21. chmod 755 /usr/sbin/ppp (I think is 755 and not 4755 like is written into howtoPPP)
22.ssh-keygen -b 512 -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_key -N ''
23.ssh-keygen -d -b 512 -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key -N ''
24.sshd
On the GNU/Linux host
25. Create /etc/ppp/peers/ipaq3ppp file
26. echo "/dev/ttyS0 115200 192.168.0.1:192.168.0.2 nodetach noauth nocrtscts lock user ppp connect '/usr/sbin/chat -v t3 ogin-ogin : ppp'" >>
/etc/ppp/peers/ipaq3ppp
27. echo "local" >> /etc/ppp/options
28. Close the minicom
29. /usr/sbin/pppd call ipaq3ppp (in the /etc/ppp/peers directory)
=> The returned message is Connect script failed
Could anybdy help me, please ?
Regards
