Hi!


There is gdb's output:

0x280d7ea4 in _poll ()
(gdb) bt
#0  0x280d7ea4 in _poll ()

#11 0x804a34d in _start ()

There is a part of my config file. There IS "delete! default":
default:
 delete! default
 set log Phase Chat LCP IPCP CCP tun command +debug
 set device /dev/modem
 set speed 57600
 set reconnect 1 50
 set timeout 300
 set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \"\" AT OK-AT-OK 
ATE0Q0S0=1

pmdemand:
 delete! default
 set phone 777777
 set login "TIMEOUT 120 ogin:--ogin: cbdv word: XXXX string: YYYYY
CONNECT
 set log +debug
 set timeout 300
 set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0 255.255.255.0 0.0.0.0
 add default HISADDR
 enable dns

There is netstat -rn: 
home# netstat -rn
Routing tables

Internet:
Destination        Gateway            Flags     Refs     Use     Netif
Expire
default            10.0.0.2           UGSc        0        0     tun0
127.0.0.1          127.0.0.1          UH          0       33      lo0

When I delete default, ppp works OK:

home# ppp -auto pmdemand
Working in auto mode
^C
home# route delete default
delete net default
home# ppp -auto pmdemand
Working in auto mode
Using interface: tun0
home# 

Is it enought to make you sure that it isn't user error? :)

You can reprodyce the problem by:
1. uncommenting 'pmdemand' section and add there delete! default
2. starting ppp with 'ppp -auto pmdemand'
3. killing it with -9
4. starting it again

Are you doing anything funny with ``hostname'' on your machine ?
The only reports I've heard where ppp hangs at startup is when your 
``hostname'' won't resolve (see http://www.FreeBSD.org/FAQ/userppp.html).

If this isn't the problem, I'd appreciate if you could build ppp with 
-g and when it hangs, run ``gdb -p whatever'' and do a ``bt''.

Cheers.
