Issue: DUN will not connect using PPP on a Win Xp Sp3 guest. Slip connection will connect, but is not suitable for my situation as it is incompatible with dynamic IP/DNS, only uses static.

Requirement: 734 error- failure PPP needs resolution on Win Xp host, need dynamic ip/dns

Modem details: Blackberry flip, usb connection. Can act as modem (confirmed). Standard modem installed in windows, and BB software.

Computer: Acer Aspire netbook. Ubuntu netbook remix 9.04 (host). VB (PUEL). Win Xp Sp3 (guest)- Guest works well, internet, and various software installed. USB also works on guest, have tested with BB and USB sticks.

* Has anyone managed to connect PPP thru a VB usb connection to a modem?
