RE: Familiar] [Help]: ppp setup

Hi, maybe u like to check the following.

    Check if the ppp user account has been added into the iPAQ.
    Make sure the /home/ppp directory is there.
    Also check that under /etc/passwd, the pppd in the command shell field
points to the correct path. Sometimes the pppd is installed not under /sbin
but under /usr/sbin (my case).
    Next, ensure that you have logged out from Familiar at the terminal
console at the host PC.
    Then, ensure that u have exit the terminal program (minicom or others).

    That's all. Hope that helps.
