Hello membs,
I am using a serial cable for the first time in my life :) to connect two
machines (with ppp).
I did run pppd (v2.3.10 on 2.2.13kernel) on both (i give --
'pppd ttyS0 noauth'), and it cooooly registers ppp0 device. Then, if i do
'ifconfig ppp0 192.168.2.220 pointopoint 192.168.2.219 up'
on any machine, it fails with
SIOCSIFFLAGS Device not Configured
ppp: ppp0 not active
Now what is this and how to make this active? Am i missing something? I
tried with null modem cable too, same thing. Please note, i've already
complied the kernels for PPP support.
Sharad.
