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. markus ppp.conf =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= # default: set device /dev/cuaa0 set speed 38400 disable lqr deny lqr set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \"\" ATE1Q0 OK-AT-OK \\dATDT\\T TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT" # dialin: set timeout 1800 disable pap enable chap enable proxy set authname ppp set ifaddr 206.205.130.177 206.205.130.178 =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= -- Mark Plummer, markus@nrgnet.com, +1 410 905 0136
