I am still trying to migrate to Debian from RedHat but having little success. After many tries I finally got X and GNOME working, now I am trying to get the networking going, in particular ppp. I tried various things already but without success, and right now I am about all out of ideas wht to try next, thus any help is appreciated.
I want to set up ppp such that it dials on demand. I have this working on my RedHat system and figured I should be able to do the same on Debian. Thus I copied /etc/ppp/options /etc/ppp/pap-secrets /etc/ppp/chap-script /etc/resolv.conf /etc/hosts /etc/hosts.deny /etc/hosts.allow from my RedHat system to the Debian system. This does not appear to be good enough. I can start pppd, no complaints, but when I start mozilla pppd makes no attempt to connect to my ISP. Another issue is that I keep getting the following messages to my log file Sep 8 08:42:13 journey kernel: Packet log: input DENY eth0 PROTO=17 192.168.1.2:138 192.168.255.255:138 L=205 S=0x00 I=53061 F=0x0000 T=128 (#6) This happens about every second, such my log file can get lare quickly. When I shut the system down I get the following message Sep 8 08:44:43 journey kernel: device eth0 left promiscuous mode Any help is appreciated.
