I have this peculiar error trying to run user-ppp for pppoe. Apparently at random the client just dies. Now that would be sort of ok, except that trying to restart the client does not work unless I reboot, where the client starts fine. Here are the pertinent /etc/rc.conf entries gateway_enable=yes ifconfig de0="inet 10.0.0.1 netmask 255.0.0.0 -arp up" //outside nic ifconfig dc0="inet 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.0.0 -arp up" //inside nic ppp_enable="YES" ppp_mode="background" ppp_profile="pppoe" That seems to be in order ppp.conf looks like this: set device PPPoE:de0: set mru 1492 set mtu 1492 set speed sync enable lqr set lqrperiod 5 set cd 5 set dial set login set timeout 0 set authname ******* set passwd ****** set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0 255.255.255.0 0.0.0.0 add default HISADDR enable dns I honestly have no clue why the client would most frustratingly die on me, and of course at the most inopportune times. Most of this ppp.conf stuff is jibberish to me, so if anybody could point me somewhere (other than the ppp manpage, thank you) that would help me out?
