Hello!
In the spirit of ending my reliance upon GUI programs, I read
and followed Lawson's advice in his pppd micro-howto, but cannot
understand two things: why my attempts to connect to my ISP fail
initially, and why I sometimes connect, but don't get IP addresses
from my ISP.
Here's what happens. I'll give the command to initiate the process,
and I'll receive the message 'connect script failed.' If I try again,
I usually connect with something like:
Serial connection established.
Using interface ppp0
Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/modem
Remote message: Login Succeeded
local IP address 200.230.129.109
remote IP address 200.230.128.10
or occasionally, I'll get 'No response to PAP authenticate-requests'.
What might I be doing wrong? What I might try in order to connect the
first time?
By the way, kppp succeeds on it's first attempt, unless I've just begun my X
session, in which case there is some error message -- something to the effect
there is no ppp support in the kernel; sorry I can't remember the exact
message.
My /usr/local/ppp-up, the command I use to initiate the process,
is the following:
#!/bin/sh
/usr/sbin/pppd -detach modem lock crtscts \
defaultroute asyncmap 0 mtu 552 mru 552 \
user [EMAIL PROTECTED] \
connect /usr/local/bin/dial2 \
/dev/modem 115200
This is the dial2 script mentioned above:
#!/bin/sh
/usr/sbin/chat -v ABORT BUSY ABORT 'NO CARRIER' '' \
'ATZ' OK 'ATDT33552000' CONNECT ''
Here are the pertinent /var/log/messages entries:
