This seems to help somewhat -- e.g, I had 1 session that lasted over 4 hours and terminated normally without HDLC errors :-) But other sessions die the same old way, with nothing in my ppp.log between "PPP enabled" and the error, e.g: Feb 12 12:19:25 localhost ppp[177]: tun0: Phase: Parent: PPP enabled Feb 12 13:05:19 localhost ppp[180]: tun0: Phase: deflink: HDLC errors -> FCS: 1, ADDR: 0, COMD: 0, PROTO: 0 I doubt it's a problem with my phone line or power quality -- I never had this problem using Mindspring as my ISP. And my system is in the same place as before (2 year old house, with Cat-5 wiring). So I still need ideas for fixes, how to enable extra logging, etc. Also, isn't there an underlying FreeBSD bug? Shouldn't both ppp and the OS be able to recover gracefully after HDLC errors? -rick To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
