When I do "ppp -ddial isp" it dials my ISP fine, but if the connection gets dropped (either via me testing it by physically removing and then replacing the connection - or by my ISP deciding to drop my line) it doesn't redial. I've also tried this via interactive mode and no redial occurs. Could someone PLEASE help me fix my configuration?? 1. I'm using FreeBSD 3.2 that came with "The Complete FreeBSD", running on a Cyrix 133. 200 Meg Swap. Plenty of RAM (something like 96 meg). 2. I have a standard modem ("Zoom modem" 33.3? 33.6? something like that). 3. when I dial "ppp -ddial isp" i get the following response (computer is called "myname"): myname# ppp -ddial isp Working in ddial mode Using interface: tun0 At this point it connects and everything is fine. It wont redial upon a disconnect though. 4. My ppp.conf is as follows (minus my login phone#, id and pw): default: set log Phase Chat LCP IPCP CCP tun command set device /dev/cuaa1 set speed 115200 set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \"\" AT OK-AT-OK ATE1Q0 OK \\dATDT\\T TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT" isp: set phone MY_ISP_PHONE_NUMBER # Don't close the connection for idle time set timeout 0 # Log On Info set authname MY_LOGIN_ID set authkey MY_LOGIN_PW # Dynamic IP Address set ifaddr 0 0 add default HISADDR enable dns # reconnect after 3 seconds, 999 tries set reconnect 3 999 # redial after 10 seconds, infinite tries set redial 10 0 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
