If anybody can help me out with this I'd sure appreciate it.
I'm trying to get a VPN established between a remote W98 machine and a
network connected to the internet through a MoretonBay NETtel 2520 using
cable modems at both ends.
I obviously don't know what I'm doing, because according to the directions,
this thing can be easily configured by anybody who can read...

I can get the NETtel up and working from a connectivity standpoint.
(allthough it is bothersome that the diagnostics screen says that I'm using
a regular modem to connect to the internet, when in fact, I'm connected to a
cable modem. -when I try to configure it for cable modem useage it locks the
whole box up)

Here are some logs and configs
**NETtel logs after attempted VPN connect from remote W98 box/MSVPN adapter
**(W98 box connected to cable modem 1, NETtel connected to cable modem 2)
logs:
pppd: pppd 2.3.8 started by (unknown), uid 0
pppd: Using interface ppp0
pppd: Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/ttyp0
pppd: Modem hangup
pppd: Connection terminated.
pppd: Exit.
