Re: Problem with user-pppoe after upgrade, fixed

2001-07-16 Thread Brian Somers

Hi,

Let me make sure I've got things straight.  You've upgraded to 
-stable and removed any ``set mtu'' or ``set mru'' lines that you've 
got in your ppp.conf.

If this is the case, then I'm not sure what's happening.  The only 
way I can reproduce what you're seeing in your log is if I add ``set 
mtu 1500'' to the configuration - which is incorrect (you can't force 
the link to have a 1500 byte mtu as it's physically invalid).

LOL! ok.. I see. Darn mozilla. :) Ok, here goes a url, that should be fine:

http://anarcat.dyndns.org/ftp/pub/FreeBSD/local_info/ppp.conf

Also check the parent dir for dmesg.

Then a workaround is to change them to 1492. :) But ok, I'll kill the line.

I'm sorry, I forgot to check yesterday night. But we have another nice 
test case here that cross-posted -stable and -questions. :)

I'll try to do it via remote and a nice script, but this is mad, I could 
really fsck up my connection here.

Hmm...

Let's be mad. ;)

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 ?
