M o r e i n p u t !
Is his modem failing to CONNECT? Is it connecting but not logging in? Is
it logging in but not establishing a PPP link? Have a look in
/var/log/messages for some clues. Maybe have the (l)user walk through
his dialup session in HyperTerm or whatever terminal software he has
available.

Confidence is the feeling you have before you understand the situation.
If at first you don't succeed, try a shorter bungee. When in trouble,
when in doubt, run in circles, scream and shout. The two great secrets
of success are: don't tell anyone everything that you know.
