ppp dial out

Hi
I am trying to configure Solaris 2.6 for ppp dial out connection.
I manage to get a connection but the ppp negotiation fails, I assume this is down to the call script I am using in /etc/uucp/Dialers, due to the following errors {BAD FCS}, {Unrecognized protocol}, with the default hayes entry I also get {Unescaped characters} as an error.  The modem is a hayes ultra smartmodem 9600, and functions correctly using tip to get a modem to modem connection, for login to another unix box.

I have tried all three of the following entries in /etc/uucp/Dialers:

#hayes  =,-,    "" \dA\pTE1V1X1Q0S2=255S12=255\r\c OK\r \EATDT\T\r\c CONNECT
hayes =,-,      "" \dAT\r\c OK\r EATDT\T\r\c CONNECT STTY=crtscts,crtsxoff
#hayes =,-,     "" P_ZERO "" \dAT\r\c OK\r EATDT\T\r\c CONNECT

Can anyone suggest a remedy?

Hi mrausch
Thanks for the help. I had assumed the problem was with the modem configuration due to the following paragraph in the "Sun Service Tip Sheet for Sun PPP" from the latest SunSolve CD:

"Modem problems may also generate the following messages:.......
....{BAD FCS}
      {Unrecognized protocol}
      {unescaped characters}......."

Could you also explain the other error messages {BAD FCS} and {Unrecognized protocol: d}?

I will check with the peer, in fact this is my ISP, and this whole exercise was purely an exercise to learn how to configure Solaris for PPP dial out on a sparc IPX at home and I am unlikely to actually use it for such use (especially a 9600 modem).

I will come back to grade your answer and any further info will be appreciated.
Thanks for the info.
I have achieved a connection using a different ISP.
