I apologize if I'm missing something obvious, but reading and rereading the handbook, FAQ, and searching the archives didn't help so far. I'm trying to set up an outgoing sppp connection to my ISP. I'm completely new to ISDN. My ISDN card is Winbond. I seem to have succeeded in configuring both isdnd and ifconfig correctly. The problem lies with ispppcontrol: it fails to set authentication options for isp0. As a result, I do get an outgoing connection (or so isdnd tells me) but it gets closed immediately by the remote end. Here's the error that 'ispppcontrol isp0' gives me: ispppcontrol: SIOCGIFGENERIC(SPPPIOGDEFS): Invalid argument If I try to put the authentication options elsewhere, in the ppp-send-auth etc. options of isdn.rc, here's what I get when trying to run isdn: ERR ERROR fetching active PPP authentication info for isp0 at line 23! (looking at the code reveals they both seem to fail at essentially the same ioctl call). My system is FreeBSD 4.0, version number 400017. I'm using i4b 0.95. Here're the revelant lines of my config file: device iwic0 pseudo-device "i4bq921" pseudo-device "i4bq931" pseudo-device "i4b" pseudo-device "i4btrc" 4 pseudo-device "i4bctl" pseudo-device "i4brbch" 4 pseudo-device "i4btel" 2 options IPR_VJ pseudo-device "i4bipr" 4 pseudo-device "i4bisppp" 4 Here's the relevant dmesg info: pci0iwic0: <Generic Winbond W6692 ISDN PCI (0x66921050)> port 0xe800-0xe8ff mem 0xdb400000-0xdb400fff irq 9 at device 19.0 on pci0iwic0: passive stack unit 0 i4b: ISDN call control device attached i4bisppp: 4 ISDN SyncPPP device(s) attached (VJ header compression) i4bctl: ISDN system control port attached i4bipr: 4 IP over raw HDLC ISDN device(s) attached (VJ header compression) i4btel: 2 ISDN telephony interface device(s) attached i4brbch: 4 raw B channel access device(s) attached i4btrc: 4 ISDN trace device(s) attached Thanks a lot for any help! -- Anatoly Vorobey, mellon@pobox.com http://pobox.com/~mellon/ "Angels can fly because they take themselves lightly" - G.K.Chesterton To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isdn" in the body of the message
