X-Mailer: VM 6.29 under 20.2 XEmacs Lucid (beta2) Sender: owner-bugs@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I don't have alot of details of why this is happening yet, but I mentioning it just in case somebody has some ideas. The system is running 3.0-current like April 27th. Basically if the phone connection goes down while the pppd ppp link is running; the system will either completely lock up or just reboot (no panic message just reboot). I usally take a minute or so before it will actually hang. The other end is also a 3.0-current system but only as of about a month ago, it doesn't seem to have a problem when the link goes down. It probably should be noted that the system with the problem has and internal modem (Cardinal if it make a difference) and the other system has an external modem. One other thing; I have been trying to get an SGI box to talk to both pppd and ppp on a freebsd machine... they do not want to talk to each other. the lcp phase fails miserably. They won't agree on the magic numbers. Any suggestions? -- Russell Cattelan ------------------------------------------- Of all that works backward must be foreword! -------------------------------------------
