Re: Problem with user-pppoe after upgrade, fixed
Hi, I said your ppp.conf was censored because you didn't attach it - you just attached an error message that said it couldn't read it :*P The right fix is to simply remove these lines. What do your logs say when you enable LCP logging and the negotiation fails ? Brian Somers wrote: Hi, I think your ppp.conf was a bit too censored. Well the only thing I censored was my password/username lines and a set log line I removed the same day. Apart from that, this is the ppp.conf that I use right now, and it works. If you're setting the MTU or MRU to 1500, this will now fail. As seen in the logs? The maximum these can be set to for PPPoE is 1492. That's the physical ethernet limitation, right? That's now enforced by the PPPoE ppp device as it knows the limitations on the physical Ethernet. Shouldn't ppp warn the user or panic instead of looping as it did for me? Just commenting out your setting of the MTU/MRU should solve your problems. Actually, putting the set mtu/mru lines solved the problems. Should I remove them altogether to remove future problems? :) Thank you very much.

You need a relatively recent -stable to have the man page. I see the page... Thanks, btw. However, it still seems fubar. Like I said before, natd's configuration looks simple enough, but packets aren't getting through. If I add an ipfw rule to just allow traffic to the outside port (8080), I see incoming packets hitting the rule... but no connection (no real fowarding to the internal ip:port). If I run a sniffer on the outside interface, I see connection attempts to 8080... run the same sniffer on the internal interface, nothing. My first thought was 'duh, the packets have to get to natd somehow so redirect_port can actually do something...' but changing the 8080 allow to a divert doesn't fix the problem. So next I figured one piece of the conversation was dying... somewhere... I.e. inbound's fine but I'm fscking something up outbound... but no denied packets in logs. It certainly seems like natd's working and ipfw just isn't allowing packets to get 'into' natd for the redirect. Unfortuneately, I've tried about everything in ipfw and natd's man page and am still stumped. Then again, I may very well be taking the wrong approach entirely.
