Hello,
I have upgraded to 2.2.6 and had to rm * the entire disk as the
cvsupit caused /usr to go to 108%. But then that may be my problem for
not knowing all the ins and outs of upgrading.
To the problem at hand. I did have a running 2.2.5 which I received
via ftp. I have had no problems with ppp after reading the handbook and
some other sources from FreeBSD. With 2.2.6 this seems to have changed.
I can't get a PPP connection but get a ppp connection which is obviously
useless. I have not changed ISP's nor have I changed what I put in for
the settings for ppp. I have tried using 10.0.0.1/0 as my IP address
along with 0 as the ISP's address.
When I do connect, I see the send and read lights of the modem (USR
56K) going very fast together. I do not have any idea as to what the
cause is. I have tried using "set authname" and "set authkey" with their
true setting. All but for no luck.
As I have said above, I had no problem in text mode to do, ppp, dial
(isp name) as I had a working ppp.conf and ppp.linkup, to get a full PPP
connection.
Hope someone here can help me out
Thanks in advance for any help which you may be able to offer
