Hello there. My name is Darren Bremer and I work for an ISP called =
NETinc. I am trying to set up a FreeBSD box so that people can call =
into it as a ppplogin. At this point in time all I want to do is =
establish a connection between the two modems/machines.
The problem that I am running into is that when my friend phones =
into the FreeBSD box I am using, it auto-answers but then as soon as a =
connection is established it drops him. He says that on his end he =
doesn't even get a login prompt or any garbage across the screen. On my =
end (I have a USR 28.8 Sportster) the following lights go on:
AA CD TR CS ARQ/FAX
then he gets dropped and the CD, ARQ/FAX lights go out.
The modem that he is using is a USR 33.6 Sportster so it could not =
be a conflict of modems. I have been throught the FreeBSD manual =
numerous times and I have asked numerous people on the IRC channels. No =
one seems to understand/know what the correct solution to the problem =
would be. Any help whatsoever would be greatly appreciated.
Just so you know I have edited the /etc/ttys file to accept the =
proper COM port and speed setting. I checked in the ps -ax listing and =
I get
/usr/libexec/getty std.38400 ttyd1
That modem is set on COM port 2.
Thank you in advance for any information you can supply me with.
Regards, Darren
Systems Administrator
