hello,
i'm using iijppp on a 2.1.0-RELEASE freebsd machine. occasionally,
the ppp dialup becomes unusable; it connects and authenticates fine, but
when packets are to be passed, nothing works. i've noticed that the
routing table believes the slave side ip address is to be reached through
the ethernet card (there's a specific entry for it), and the arp table
contains an entry for it as incomplete. neither entry goes away. this
seems to happen when another machine pings the ip address when the slave
side isn't connected (i suspect any traffic would do it). the pinging
machine (or atleast the one i tested) got an icmp redirect when it pinged.
what i'd like to know is: (a) would using pppd solve this problem, (b)
would upgrading to a later rev of free bsd solve this problem, or (c) is
there something i am doing wrong? my ppp.conf follows. please direct any
questions or replies direct to me as well as the list. thanks in advance.
