Hi I'm running a redhat-5.0 system and trying to use ppp to connect to my ISP. Using the netcfg tool and some playing with the scripts, my box will successfully: Dial my ISP. Login. Start ppp. Complete PAP Auth. at this point the kernel level ppp-debug information will report that is successfully querying packets over and over again unitl I kill -9 the pppd process. The device ppp0 is registered in /proc/net/dev but ifconfig revaels nothing and the logs don't even mention LCP or packet types except for figuring the MRU and MTU before the kernel links the ppp0 device to /dev/modem. I know my ISP does not use MS-PAP and I know they do not use CHAP. I've even looked at other people's connect scripts and found they were doing the same thing. I have the most recent .rpm of pppd (2.2.3 I belive, I'm at work and can't remember exactly) taken from the updates directory at ftp.redhat.com Anyone have any suggestions? ps.. PPP is compiled into the kernel (2.0.31) and ipv4 forwarding is on. nathan hruby ______________________________________________________________________________ nathan hruby [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.echonyc.com/~lost/ _____________________________________________________________________________ -- PLEASE read the Red Hat FAQ, Tips, Errata and the MAILING LIST ARCHIVES! http://www.redhat.com/RedHat-FAQ /RedHat-Errata /RedHat-Tips /mailing-lists To unsubscribe: mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe" as the Subject.
