tlug: PPP connection script for GOL.

[Dave Heffernan <dave@example.com>]

--------------------------------------------------------
tlug note from Dave Heffernan <dave@example.com>
--------------------------------------------------------
I was wondering if anyone has successfully connected to Global OnLine 
using Linux (2.0.18 ) and pppd (2.2.0)

Here's the info from an attempt I just made. As shown, it was done
at 17:05 on Feb 23rd. I asked GOL's systems people to check the logs
to see whay the attempt failed and their reply was that ppp_sync failed. 

My /etc/ppp/options is empty so that this script declares everything.
Any ideas on what is going wrong???

Thanks in advance,
Dave
