Problems with PPP server. Unable to ping the remote host when it loggs in.
I have set up the ppp server. When somebody calls to me, the connection establishes and the PPP server gives IPs to my machine and to the remote host. First the remote host couldn't even ping me. Then i have set up a few filters in the ppp configuration file, that allow any ICMP, TCP, and UDP traffic in and out. After this, the remote machine became able to ping me, watch my sites, and so on. !!! The main problem is that i am unable to ping the remote machine !!! PING tells me that there is no route to the remote host. i have FreeBSD 4.4-RELEASE PPP version: 2.3.2 ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Problems using ppp as a server
Hello, i have a problem using ppp as a server. When i start it like this: root # ppp -direct server it prints out a garbage: ~}#!}!}!} }=}(}}' } } } }!}$}%}%}?3i}#}%#}%C~~}#!}!}!} }=}(}}' } } } }!}$}%}%}?3i}#}%#}%C~~}#!}!}!} }=}(}}'}} }} } } } }!}$}%}%}?3i}#}%#}%C~~}#!}!}!} }=}(}}' } } } }!}$}%}%}?3i}#}%#}%C~~}#!}!}!} }=}(}}' } } } }!}$}%}% }?3i}#}%#}%C~ root # then terminates normally (i see it in the log file). this is my ppp.conf file: default: set log Phase Chat LCP IPCP CCP tun command ident user-ppp VERSION (built COMPILATIONDATE) set device /dev/cuaa1 set speed 38400 set dial ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \ \\ AT OK-AT-OK ATE1Q0 OK \\dATDT\\T TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT set timeout 180 enable dns server: enable chap set ifaddr 192.168.0.1 192.168.0.2 I also tried to run PPP like this: root # ppp -direct server It doesn't terminate in this case, but it doesn't even listen to the telephone line when somebody dials up to me. It starts to work only when i go into ppp interactive mode, and then run term command. I have FreeBSD-4.4 RELEASE, and ppp 2.3.2 THE MAIN PROBLEM IS THAT I CAN NOT MAKE MY MODEM TO ANSWER TO THE CONNECTION REQUEST AUTOMATICALLY. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
