I am having problems with dynamic Slip - sometimes it works, othertimes it doesn't - so I tried ppp. I looked up pppd in the man pages, followed the directions (connected to my host through cu, suspended cu, typed "pppd") only to see a message that "pppd is not available on your system." If it's in the man pages (and there is a "pppd" file) why is it not available? How or where can I obtain it? Can I do anything on my system to get it to work? I have implemented dynamic Slip as follows: 1. route flush 2. route delete <everthing but localhost> 3. cu to host 4. suspend cu 5. ifconfig sl0 inet <supplied IP address> gateway netmask 0xffffff00 6. route add default gateway 7. slattach -h -a -s 57600 /dev/cua01 I can then ping the gateway and the nameservers on my host but nothing else. Netstat -rn shows everything setup OK as does netstat -i. Any suggestions? I would GREATLY, GREATLY, GREATLY appreciate any help you can give on this. Thank you in advance . . . - Jeff jspringr@tribeca.ios.com
