The Question is: I HAVE 3000 MODEL 300X AND A 3COM USROBOTICS 56K VOICE FAX PRO I AM USING PPPD TO CONNECT TO A ISP WHEN I CTRL @ TO SWITCH TO POINT TO POINT PROTOCOL I GET TWO ERRORS PPP-E-ASNSETUP AND PPP-E-MODEMNOREMOTE I ALSO GET CAN NOT READ MODEM SIGNALS I AM USING SET TERM TTA1:/ALTYPEAHD/AUTOBAUD/DIALUP/ - /DISCONNECT/EIGHTBIT/MODEM/NOHANGUP/NOHOSTSYNC - /NOPASTHRU/NOREADSYNCH/NOTTSYNCH/PERMANENT- /TYPE_AHEAD/SPEED=(19200,19200) ALSO MADE SHURE THAT TTDRIVER WAS LOADED MC SYSMAN SYSMAN> IO CONNECT VTA0 /NOADAPTER/DRIVER=SYS$TTDRIVER DOING A SHOW DEV SHOWS DEV TTA0: AND TTA1: AND VTA0: AND ASN0: PPPO: WERE ON VTA0: WAS OFF LINE USING XON FOR MODEM AND XON FOR PPPD THE INTERFACE IS ALSO INSTALL AND CONFIGURED TCPIP>SET CONFIG INTERFACE PP0 /SERIAL_DEVICE=TTA1:/HOST=IP TCPIP> SET INTERFACE PP0 /SERIAL_DEVICE=TTA1:/HOST= IP IT LOOKS LIKE THE INTERFACE IS SETUP RIGHT AND THE TT IS SETUP RIGHT I AM USING A STANDARD MODEM CABLE 1-8 20-22 IT ALSO SEEMS TO WORK WITH SET HOST/DTE FINE BUT NOT WITH PPPD CAN YOU HELP ME WITH THIS PROBLEM The Answer is :
The error message PPP-E-MODEMNOREMOTE is the key. This means that
at the point where PPP asked to switch the line, the modem was not
presenting the correct signals to OpenVMS. This could be the result
of an incorrect cable. (Just because you can dial out with
SET HOST/DTE with no problem does not mean the cable and modem are
working as required by OpenVMS.)
To determine if the modem is wired and working correctly, try the
following:
1) Use SET HOST/DTE TTA1 and log into another system
2) From another process on the originating system, issue
the command SHOW TERMINA TTA1
3) Determine if the remote bit is set.
The PPP code checks that the remote bit is set when it stitches the
line if it is not it issues the MODEMNOREMOTE error.
For general information on correctly connecting modems to OpenVMS,
please see various earlier discussions here in Ask The Wizard.
