Im trying to set up a ppp connection from my Red Hat New Install, so it can
serve as a dial-up server for my workstations (among other things...)
I found an excellent HOW TO back in the archives
http://www.redhat.com/support/docs/rhl/PPP-Client-HOWTO/PPP-Client-HOWTO.ht
ml#toc11
but... I've run into a problem..
I do not have the below mentioned files anywhere on my system (that I
can see) and have no idea of what their contents should be...
----------quoting from archive---
You should end up with the following ownerships and permissions in
response to ls -l
/usr/sbin/ppp-*
-rwxr-x--- 1 root PPP 587 Mar 14 1995
/usr/sbin/ppp-on
-rwxr-x--- 1 root PPP 631 Mar 14 1995
/usr/sbin/ppp-off
---------
I've tried to continue without these, but after I connect and log into
my ISP and run the pppd as suggested in this archive i found. when i
run
ifconfig ppp0
i get
ppp0 Link encap:Point-Point Protocol
inet addr:0.0.0.0 P-t-P:0.0.0.0 Mask:0.0.0.0
POINTOPOINT MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:63287 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0
TX packets:62187 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0
any ideas? thanks in advance!
