LCP Error and PPP
I am now using RH 4.1, I had used RH 3.03 and Slackware 3.0 wich both worked well. Here is what I now get when I try to dial up. As you can see I put as much error logging on as I could so this is quite long. If soneone would examine this and give me some help.
Thank you so much in advance.

I know my ISP (www.netheaven.com) starts the pppd because when I use minicom to establish the connection after I login I get
"pppd started between xxx.xx.xx.xxx and yyy.yyy.yy.yy ##$#@$# $@$#@$$%$#>.%#$%^" {or what ever the gobbldygook it shows on the screen when it is running} Then it hangs up, I check the log and another LCP error. I did NOT have this trouble with RH3.03 or Slackware '96.

Let me give that a try.
The answer to this question is to add "silent" to the Option
file in "/etc/ppp" what is happening is pppd is trying to transmit LCP packets to initiate a connection until a valid LCP packet is received from the peer, by adding "silent" to options file it will not try to do this.
This is also good for Cable Modems

Are you sure yours doesn't?
