    Sub: PPP Configuration problem on SCO UNIX and ONNET (FTP S/W)
Hi ,
I have the following configuration. Would you please help us ?
   SCO Server  ---  MODEM  ----   /\/   --- MODEM  ----  PC
   (Pentium        FastTalk               FastTalk     ON-NET
    based)           Plus                   Plus         PPP
SCO server is configured for incomming PPP link. ON-NET for windows is loaded
into the PC and the PC uses PPP for establishing ppp link with SCO server.
PPP connection between this PC  and LINUX Server is very much fine and works
without any problem and very much reliable.
But when instead of LINUX server if same PC is used for establishing link 
with SCO server some times it connects some times it fails. Failure percentage
is 90-95%.Once the connection is esablished between PC and Serevr one ICON
is created automatically.This ICON is generally used for future connection with
server.
With this ICON PC connects to LINUX server without any problem but same PC
does'nt connect with SCO server.
Please help me out as this call is very much critical. 
Relevent Information :
SCO Open Serever  : 5.0B
Pentium           : Prioris XL 90.
RAM               : 64 MB
MODEM             : Motorolla FastTalk Plus
