Please bear with me as my Linux skills though not poor, are at best little 
more than those of a novice.

I am indeed using Redhat gui tools as I did previously under 6.2, and 
without any complications.

I have checked  all relevant settings, DNS addresses and the like, having 
written these down from my 'other OS' installation and double checked in 
case I missed anything.

I have checked the symbolic link and /dev/modem does indeed point to 
/dev/ttyS2 aka com3 in dos.  In short non of these appear to have altered 
at all as a result of the upgrade from 6.2 to 7.0.

I have run a debug using the RHppp configuration tool and have included the 
contents of the resulting ppp.log.

ATQ0 S0=0 &C1 D2 S11=55 +FCLASS=0

Login: looks like a login prompt.

         Entering PPP session.
         IP address is 214.84.80.110
         MTU is 1524.
Looks like a welcome message.
Starting pppd at Wed Jul 11 18:04:23 2001

To me everything seems ok here, however it is at this point when all 
activity appears to cease.

My /etc/ppp/config file contains only one line

lock

My apologies if this isn't helpful enough.

If there are other means of trouble shooting or other file contents that 
would shed a bit more light on the subject, please let me know.

Regards
