amon...@my-deja.com
http://www.aplawrence.com/Unixart/quickppp.shtml
But my system crash when is trying to start ppp.
I do "cu -x9 isp" and I see starting ppp on ISP site.
I do "ping isp" and after to send the username and password I see
"ISTRIP cleared" and then just CRASH with Kernel_trap E.
My Configuration files are:
ppphosts:
isp:ppp-isp uucp=isp flow=rtscts debug=0 idle=2 reqtmout=3\
conf=5 term=2 nak=10 mru=1500 retry=2 accm=0 authtmout=1
mask=255.255.255.0\
maxslot=16
Devices:
ACU tty2A - 38400 Multitech_MultiModem
Systems:
isp Any ACU 38400 18888374630 ogin: username sword password
Please somebody tell me what I'm doing wrong.
Thanks in Advance.

Uhm ... have you applied RS505A, OSS497C and OSS600A ?
Just a wild guess,

Uhm ... (again :-) shouldn't be the opposite (ie, RS505A,
OSS497C and OSS600A) ? Also, please consider patch
OSS471C; if you happen to have either a Pentium Pro or
a Pentium II processor, strange things could happen with
a bad microcode.
However, this is the first time I've heard of a PANIC while
accessing the serial port, honest !

Well, I have seen this with PAP and dynamic ppp on certain
ISP's. In those cases, I was able to solve it by NOT using
dynamic. I think I posted something about that a while
back, but haven't the patience to search Dejanews for it,
and it may even be that I found some other way around it
later (I honestly just cannot remember!).

Whether you're doing something wrong or not, you should *not* get
a panic, ever. Were you able to save the system dump when you
rebooted?

It no longer matters.
In the October 27th revision of TA 110090, it is written:
NOTE: OSS497B, the Core OS Supplement for OpenServer Release
5.0.5, has been superseded by OSS497C. OSS497C may be
installed before or after OSS600A. In the past, it had been
recommended that OSS497B be installed right _before_ OSS600A.

out *routed* from /etc/tcp file.
Now the modem is continuosly dial-in to the ISP, but I may be is because
I
have Vision running in that server, isn't?
Thanks for the help.

make it work right.
Actually, VisionFS version 1.0-1.2 has broken nsm* binaries.
You can download fixes from SCO ftp site.
There's also an article on this in SSL, try to look for "nsmsrv".
This article has not a singe "ppp" entry (believe me or not, they refer to a
"phone line"), that's why it took me a couple of months to find a solution
for this problem. Finally, somebody in this group pointed me to lsof and
lsof pointed to nsmsrv.
God bless SCO support.
