Ok, I started term, I dialed (ATDT9300502), and, .... nothing.  It sits
there for about a minute, then I get

Annex Command Line Interpreter   *   (C) Bay Networks yea yea yea yea yea.....
Checking authorization, Please wait...
Annex username: dima
Annex password:
#-------------------
#Welcoeme to Accesspoint yea yea yea,.......

~p
ppp ON zsever> Entering packet mode



and it just sits there.  I don't know if I'm supposed to enter packet mode,
but, without it, it'll sit there anyways.  I've tried entering packet mode
BEFORE the Annex Command Line, but it has no affect and just sits there.

Please help :-)
