I have been struggling to figure out how to make ppp initiate
negotiation unsuccessfully. Can someone help me with a simple ppp.conf
that does a 'set device "!/path/to/some/prog"' that will initiate
negotiation? I have a prog that waits for input from stdin and logs
any input into a /tmp/logfile, but ppp doesn't seem to be spitting
anything out. When I type "dial" at the ppp-prompt the prog is
executed but ppp isn't sending it any data.

A simple ppp.conf and command line ppp invocation and any ppp commands
at the ppp-prompt would be most helpful.

Thanks,
