Hi there. I've had problems with ppp, so I've tried following: I launched pppd on /dev/pts/2, which was one of my terminal emulator windows. PPP-carbage appears in this window and syslog gives:
Nov 1 17:37:03 kapula pppd[412]: pppd 2.3.11 started by root, uid 0 Nov 1 17:37:03 kapula pppd[412]: Using interface ppp0 Nov 1 17:37:03 kapula pppd[412]: Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/pts/2 Nov 1 17:37:33 kapula pppd[412]: LCP: timeout sending Config-Requests Nov 1 17:37:33 kapula pppd[412]: Connection terminated. Nov 1 17:37:34 kapula pppd[412]: Exit. If I try to ttyS1 with pppd /dev/ttyS1, syslog only gives: Nov 1 17:43:06 kapula pppd[440]: pppd 2.3.11 started by root, uid 0 pppd doesn't even stop unless I kill it. So my questions: Shouldn't I get same things in syslog when trying with ttyS1 too as with pts/2? And shouldn't I get these messages even if there is nothing connected in /dev/ttyS1? I'll also give you dmesg output (only part concerningn PPP or serial ports): ttyS00 at 0x03f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A ttyS01 at 0x02f8 (irq = 3) is a 16550A PPP: version 2.3.7 (demand dialling) TCP compression code copyright 1989 Regents of the University of California PPP line discipline registered. thanks in advance, Petteri Heinonen email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] tel.: +358 (0)50 3363 286 addr.: Pehkusuonkatu 21 B 38 33820 Tampere, FIN
