--=-dL1fmFoURe+xN3idBs+b Content-Type: text/plain Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit No luck with ppp-over-usb. I am going to install linux on a spair laptop, and attempt to do the indigenous install of synce/etc... so that I can see if the issue truely is the ms-chap thing. I did find that my settings were for an exchange server, hence the connection attempts/failures looking as they did prior to the ms-chap. After removing the exchange server info, I realized that the authentication/usb ppp problem will not even let me associate the pda with the bsd box. I have nothing in the drop-down menu. Now, instead of just a connection failure, it just does not connect, and the pda tell me that I have to associate the pda with a pc first. Hence, I am back where I started. I posted on the synce list like three times, and no one will even bother to reply, including the "developers." There is a freebsd developer, and he has not made an appearance, after a few directed emails. Man, this should not be so difficult. Thanks for the attempts to help. I did eventually get a bluetooth usb adapter, however, there is no clear way to make the pda sync with the bsd box, anyhow, so even if we were able to get the adapter to work, I would not have found any clear method of installation anyway. All the bsd bluetooth stack stuff is working, I just can't figure out how to make the pda "pair" with the bsd box. When I try, I get nothing from the bsd box. I think that I am suppose to turn on some services, however, no one know what one are required to make pocketpc recognize that it should "pair" with the bsd box. Any further information would be very helpful. I have read through about three howtos, and all are geared towards nokia smartphones with bluetooth, or just a bluetooth phone. None say what I am supposed to do to make my bsd box "searchable" to other bluetooth devices. I also emailed the Ambicom people. They are completely unhelpful. They just seemed to restate my questions. I have attached this useless exchange. Maybe you can let me know, via translations, what the heck these people were talking about. I think that one of them actually emailed the other asking what a "baudrate" was..... :/ On Wed, 2005-05-04 at 12:12, Maksim Yevmenkin wrote: > Martes, > > > Have you had any luck with the Ambicom CF adapter? > > unfortunately, no. i still did not get one :( i bid on ebay on several > similar adapters, but i was outbid :( > > did you manage to get ppp-over-usb stuff working? > > thanks, > max --=-dL1fmFoURe+xN3idBs+b Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=Ambicomemail Content-Type: text/plain; name=Ambicomemail; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hi, Our CF card is only working at that baudrate, I don't know how you configured your system. that is the fact.
