I'm not sure here (but someone will point if I'm mistaken), but ppp |
| 2 |
init script is intend to bring up adsl based connections, while you |
| 3 |
need a dialler to connect dial-up, back in the days I had dial-up I |
| 4 |
used minicom, and later kppp to handle this... In fact, you need to |
| 5 |
set your device (usually /dev/modem) and use a program to dial using |
| 6 |
that modem, this will create the ppp0 interface for you, and also |
| 7 |
(most of them) will set is as the default route. Any server with |
| 8 |
dial-up has configurations, and that's what your ISP have in their |
| 9 |
script, you just find them out and put the same config at your dialer. |

Good luck. |
