I was attempting to set up and configure my machine to use the user PPP
program. When I boot the machine--with the current network configuration--
I get the following:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
.
.
lo0: flags=8009<UP,LOOPBACK,MULTICAST> mtu 16384
inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000
tun0: flags=51<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING> mtu 1500
inet 0.0.0.0 --> 206.124.64.253 netmask 0xffffff00
add net 0.0.0.0: gateway aether.one.domain
writing to routing socket: File exists
add host aether.one.domain: gateway localhost: File exists
starting routing daemons: routed.
.
.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I was attempting to connect to a GTE dialup account. Their gateway address
is 206.124.64.253. This ISP uses dynamic IP address allocation.
What causes the "file exists" error?
Also, when using the ppp program in manual mode; I get "write: file exists".
Thanks for your help
