I'm running kernel PPP under 2.2.2_RELENG_8/1
When trying to use password ( PAP ) authentication the modem connected
to the FreeBSD box hangs up on the first invalid attempt from a client
machine. I've modified the options file as thus:
debug
login
proxyarp
crtscts # Hardware flow control
netmask 255.255.255.0 # netmask ( not required )
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx # ip's of local and remote hosts
# local ip must be different from one
# you assigned to the ethernet ( or other )
# interface on your machine.
# remote IP is ip address that will be
# assigned to the remote machine
domain cdnow.com # your domain
dns1 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
dns2 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
passive # wait for LCP
silent # wait for remote LCP
persist # Stay running?
modem # modem line
pap-max-authreq 10
pap-timeout 60
pap-restart 60
I call ppp via:
pppd -d /dev/cuaa1 38400
However, this doesn't solve the problem nor change anything about it.
I'm using a an empty PAP file so the user can use the system passwords
instead.
Also, I can't get the connection to go above 38400. Any other value
above this causes the program to exit as it can't sync with the modem.
Any ideas?
