After following the steps outlined in the handbook I am able to dial, and
login
to my isp (which dynamically assigns IP addresses). But I am unable to
perform
any online taks such as ping and telent. Below are copies of relevent
sections
of the config files:
PPP.CONF::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
# Default setup. Always executed when PPP is invoked.
#
default:
set device /dev/cuaa0
set speed 28800
disable lqr
deny lqr
set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \"\" ATE1Q0 OK-AT-OK
\\dATDT\\T TIMEOUT 120 CONNECT"
#Section for dialing my provider
k:
set phone 9632224
set login "TIMEOUT 5 ogin:-\\r-ogin: MYUSERNAME word: MYPASSWORD"
set timeout 120
set ifaddr 206.240.85.250/0 206.240.85.1/0 255.255.255.0
delete ALL
add 0 0 206.240.85.1
PPP.LINKUP::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
206.240.85.250:
add 0 0 HISADDR
########################################################################
I have set 206.240.85.250 as my IP in /etc/hosts
(beowulf.enterconnect.net in hosts and rc.conf)
I have included the nameservers for my isp in /etc/resolv.conf
I know that my isp's gateway is 206.240.85.1
and the address of the machine I usually log into is 206.240.85.4
Below is a ppp session::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
ppp ON beowulf> dial k

the routed messages come after several minutes of being
connected...possibly a disconnection due to inactivity?
Now here's a sample of some things I try to while connected::::::::::::::::
# ping 141.104.22.202
PING 141.104.22.202 (141.104.22.202): 56 data bytes
^C
--- 141.104.22.202 ping statistics ---
3 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100% packet loss
# ping www.netscope.net
^C
# ping 206.240.85.1
PING 206.240.85.1 (206.240.85.1): 56 data bytes
^C
--- 206.240.85.1 ping statistics ---

########################################################################
I am able to ping myself as 206.240.85.250 (what I assigned) and as
206.240.85.81 (server assigned ..the number varies of course..but it's
always pingable)
If I issue delete ALL at the PPP prompt and then try pinging some address
or machine names...*obviously* ping gripes about no route to host.
Then I add 0 0 206.240.85.1 (the gateway) ,but this produces the
same results from ping attempts (no complaints, but no responses from other
servers).
If you've stuck with me this long, I thank you deeply for that. My real
question is: What is wrong here? I've searched the archives and FAQ,
tried to learn as much about this process as possible but can't understand
what's not working. Do I not have a route to any of the hosts?
routedflags=-s in rc.conf as instructed. If anyone can help me, or if
(heaven forbid :-) ) you need more information, email me, I'm not currently
on the mailing list, so reply to me directly. Thank you so much for your
precious time and help. It is truely appreciated.
