Mark,

Do a WRKTCPPTP.  You should see something like the following:

                                                   Line      Line    Job
 Opt  Name        Mode   Type   Status          Description  Type    Name

         QESDIAL  *DIAL  *PPP   OUTQ            QESPPLIN     *PPP
QTPPPSSN

You can do an option 8 to work with the output.  Check the job log and see
what errors it might indicate.  You should see all kinds of stuff in this
job log - modem reset, initialization, answer/no answer, etc.

There is something about your environment that is bugging me a little and I
can't put my finger on it.  Any changes made or attempted recently?  You
might want to go through Operations Navigator and configure an IBM
Universal Connection and test it from there.  I may be wrong but I don't
think you can do PPP against the standard QESLINE description.  If you do a
WRKLIND on it you should see that it is an *SDLC type.  But based on your
information that you are providing you are attempting a PPP connection.  I
think if you do the WRKTCPPTP and check the job log that should give you an
indication.
