Subject: I have user ppp connected - But I can't telnet !!!
Sender: owner-questions@FreeBSD.org
X-Loop: FreeBSD.org
Precedence: bulk

I have configured user ppp, and can connect to my ISP (I manually start ppp
from one of the virtual consoles). As instructed by ppp's man page, I have
attempted to telnet to my ISP from another virtual console, but telnet
cannot find a route to my ISP. I have included below some of my system files :

My /etc/hosts file

        127.0.0.1		localhost.sirn.org	localhost
        205.151.119.1		siren.sirn.org		siren
        198.168.101.32		HIP.CAM.ORG		cam

My /etc/host.conf file

        bind
        hosts


My /etc/gateways file

        host 198.168.101.32 gateway 205.151.119.1 metric 0 passive

           ---Should metric be set to 1 ??

Part of my ppp.conf

         set login "TIMEOUT 10 login:-\\r-login:"
         set timeout 120
         set openmode active
         set ifaddr 205.151.119.54/24 198.168.101.32

        Note: My ISP uses dynamic IP addressing to determine my IP address

My ppp.linkup

        # If we are invoked with an argument ``iij-demand'', then
        # delete existing route entry and add peer as default gateway.
        #
        iij-demand:
         delete ALL
         add 0 0 HISADDR
        #
        # Otherwise, simply add peer as default gateway.
        #
        MYADDR:
         add 0 0 198.168.101.32
