Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hello. I have a dial up machine with a static IP, as I have a MX record pointing to this IP (chain.iafrica.com) A backup mx record exists elsewhere, and when I dial-in the system ackknowledges that I am alive and starts sending me mail. All well and good, and everything works. Only, it works VERY slowly :( I have spoken to Mark Murray and he has helped me quite a bit, but things are still not satisfactory. I have looked in the handbook and faq, but like any newbie have probably missed some important point. I am including my ppp.conf and ppp.linkup file, and my sysconfig. My static IP is 196.7.74.174, and the destination IP is dynamic. I hope you can help, tia. ---ppp.conf--- default: set device /dev/cuaa0 set speed 38400 disable lqr deny lqr set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 10 \"\" AT&f1e0&a3&b1&c1&d2&h1&k3&r2s7=90s6=3 OK-AT-OK \\dATDP\\T TIMEOUT 90 CONNECT" chain: set phone 6831443 set login "TIMEOUT 5 login:-\\r-login: Pkhetan word: *******" set timeout 120 set ifaddr 196.7.74.174 0 add 196.7.74.174 255.255.255.0 0 ---ppp.conf--- ---ppp.linkup--- MYADDR: add 0 0 HISADDR ---ppp.linkup--- ---sysconfig--- #!/bin/sh # # This is sysconfig - a file full of useful variables that you can set # to change the default startup behavior of your system. # # $Id: sysconfig,v 1.14.4.5 1995/09/19 12:09:03 jkh Exp $ ######################### Start Of Syscons Section ####################### # Choose keyboard map from /usr/share/syscons/keymaps/* or NO if default. keymap=NO # Set keyboard rate to: slow, normal, fast or NO if default. keyrate=NO # Change function keys default values (or no change if NO) # Syntax: " [ ]..." keychange=NO # Desired cursor type {normal|blink|destructive}, NO if no change cursor=NO # Choose screen map from /usr/share/syscons/scrnmaps/* (or NO for none) scrnmap=NO # Choose font 8x16 from /usr/share/syscons/fonts/* (or NO for default) font8x16=NO # Choose font 8x14 from /usr/share/syscons/fonts/* (or NO for default) font8x14=NO # Choose font 8x8 from /usr/share/syscons/fonts/* (or NO for default) font8x8=NO # Set blank time (in seconds) or "off" to turn it off (or NO for default) blanktime="360" # Set to screen saver desired: blank, green, snake, star (or NO for none) saver="star" # General russian setup for example: # (koi8-r keyboard with cp866 screen font mapped to koi8-r) # # keymap=ru.koi8-r # keyrate=fast # keychange="61 " # cursor=destructive # scrnmap=koi8-r2cp866 # font8x16=cp866b-8x16 # font8x14=cp866-8x14 # font8x8=cp866-8x8 # blanktime=600 # saver=snake ######################### End Of Syscons Section ####################### ######################### Start Of Netconfig Section ####################### # Set to the name of your host - this is pretty important! hostname="chain.iafrica.com" # Set to the NIS domainname of your host, or NO if none defaultdomainname=NO # # Some broken implementations can't handle the RFC 1323 and RFC 1644 # TCP options.
