The portion of ppp.log covering a failed ppp session is copied on to the end
of this email.  But its importance is gone, since I just found the problem
30 minutes ago.

My error was in the ppp.conf file: it lacked the 'set dial' line in the
default section.  This got dropped when I was thrashing around trying to
find the problem earlier.  For reasons I still don't understand exactly, the
probe of my PCMCIA modem often failed.  So setting my dialer device
/dev/cuaa4 didn't work, nor did  the build of a custom kernel.  In the midst
of this, I monkeyed with ppp.conf.  When I finally got the ducks all lined
up, the incomplete ppp.conf remained the final obstacle to a working
internet connection.

"One thing at a time ....".     I know; I know...

Thanks again.

Hal
