- I have recently decided to connect to the Internet, so I got the following
- software:
-
- - AmiTCP 4.2
- - PPP 1.44 Registered
-
- Then I subscribed with a local provider and installed everything. I chose the
- following setup:
-
- Dynamic IP address with PPP/PAP
-
- The installation procedure seemed to go straight, but...
- ...there is a little problem: every time I type 'startnet' I get the following
- message:
-
- Topo Gigio[2]% startnet DEBUG

- SHELL: ***Break
- AmiTCP couldn't be started!
-
- And, when I type 'online ppp0', I get the following:
-
- S2_ONLINE: Device driver is offline (Unit is currently offline)
-
-
- The messages are not very explanatory to me, so I have absolutely no idea of
- what happened.
- I tried to monitor the call with SnoopDOS, but it also is not very
- informative...
- I read an re-read AmiTCP manual and PPP docs, but I don't really know what's
- going wrong.
-
- Is there anybody who could help me? I could also send AmiTCP log file and every
- config file
- created by the installation scripts.
-
- I made all the work on the following configuration:
-
- HARDWARE:
-
- Amiga3000 25Mhz , 2MB Chip + 8MB Fast
- HD Quantum 200Mb + HD Fujitsu 540Mb (SCSI II)
- External SCSI II Sanyo CD-ROM
- External Modem JET 28800
- PICASSO II Graphic Board
- Kickstart 3.1
-
- RUNNING SOFTWARE
-
- PowerSnap 2.2
- PowerCache 37.64
- PowerData 1.0b
- Magic Menu 1.22
- VMM 3.3
- YAK 2.11
- Toolmanager 2.1b
- MagicSelector 1.80
-
- I also replaced FFS with AMIFILESAFE PRO on ALL my partition (except VMM's)
