Ok...I believe this to be what you asked for, from the /var/log/mgetty.ttyS1

And here is a sample from the same attempt according to /var/log/messages

I'm not sure what the "can't locate module ppp" is all about.  I appreciate
anything you or anyone can suggest.  Just a reminder, I can login to my
server manually, the account "ppp" has /usr/sbin/pppd for it's starting
shell/program.  And /usr/sbin/pppd has been added to my /etc/shells, although
I'm not sure it's needed, but attempted anyways.

Thanks,
