Schwertfeger" To: questions Subject: setting up an iijPPP server Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I'm having a rotten time setting up a FreeBSD machine for dialup IP access from a Win95 workstation. I went through the iijppp man pages, and it looks like I've got it set up correctly. The problem comes when I log in, then try to run the ppp -direct command. Here's what I get Script started on Mon May 13 16:51:02 1996 horst: {1} /usr/sbin/ppp -direct User Process PPP. Written by Toshiharu OHNO. Log level is 09 Using interface: tun0 Packet mode enabled. bind: Address already in use Wait for a while, then try again. horst: {2} exit horst: {3} exit Script done on Mon May 13 16:51:31 1996 Here's a trimmed version of ppp.secret. I first though that the IP addresses specified here might have been causing the problem, so I removed them, but it made no difference. ################################################## # Sysname Secret Key Peer's IP address # # $Id: ppp.secret.sample,v 1.2 1995/02/26 12:16:37 amurai Exp $ # ################################################## eh ******** EH ******** horst ******** horst.bfd.com ******** Here's the ppp.conf, sans comments: I've tried addresses within our class C address range, both within 192.168.2.X, and as here, under different class C addresses. default: disable pap enable chap enable proxy set authname horst set ifaddr 192.168.5.10 192.168.4.11 Unfortunately, this got dropped in my lap with about 24 hours notice before it had to work, and almost half of that is gone already. I would really appreciate some help on this. Basically, the only requirement is that the Win95 machine call into our network and be able to surf our web server, though going out through our T1 to surf the rest of the net is kind of important as well. Our Class C address is not subnetted. I'm going to try to set up kernel PPP, though I'm not sure if I'll need to set up my own proxy arp setup since the net isn't subnetted.
