Hi, somehow I've managed to lock myself out of the ppp tool. I had it set up on my 5.3 box so that I could dial out as a regular user (I've added myself to the dialer group and added a "allow users markus" line to ppp.conf). This worked nicely until yesterday.
Needless to say, I can't remember doing anything that might affect this peaceful state. I did install a few ports, but these were related to text processing, not to networking. Regardless, if I try to start ppp today from my user account, I'll never see the ppp command prompt. Instead, ppp eats all my cpu cycles by forking (the process list is full of ppp instances) until I kill ppp. ppp still works if I run it as root. However, I get this warning: Warning: ff02:4::/32: Change route failed: errno: Network is unreachable which I didn't get before either. As you can see, I can connect to the internet regardless, but I'd like to know how I managed to screw this up. Has anyone seen this before? regards, Markus -- Markus Hoenicka [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Spam-protected email: replace the quadrupeds with "mhoenicka") http://www.mhoenicka.de _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
