On jul 28 and 29 one of my clients had problem with his leased line. He couldn't connect for the 2 days. My server is configured to answering mode so the machine answered the whole 2 days. And on the second day (jul 29) the server actually *died*. Later when I checked the logs I got the following thing: (part of /var/log/all.log) ... Jul 29 22:51:27 shaper /kernel: file: table ile: table is full Jul 29 22:51:27 shaper /kernel: file: table is full Jul 29 22:51:27 shaper last message repeated 42 times Jul 29 22:51:27 shaper /kernel: le: table is full Jul 29 22:51:27 shaper /kernel: file: table is full Jul 29 22:51:27 shaper last message repeated 42 times ... and this keeps on and on. ppp configuration for this client is: client1: set device /dev/cuaa0 set phone set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \ \"\" AT OK-AT-OK AT&F&C1&D2X1M1L2 OK \\dATA TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT" set timeout 180 set ifaddr 1.2.3.29 1.2.3.36 So my question is, how can this happen ? Is my ppp configuration wrong ? Does freebsd's ppp have problem handling with files ? P.S. If you know the reason for the "full file table" problem please answer me as fast as possible. thanks To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
