I'm trying to configure a 2.2r5 system for dial-in PPP access. The dail-in part works fine, but when the dial-in user starts pppd using "exec /usr/sbin/pppd -detach", the ppp daemon just sits there forever: deaf and dumb until it's killed.
Starting pppd from a ssh session works fine: pppd sends out LCP packets (logging them to /var/log/debug) and times out after a while since it gets no LCP reply packets. Starting pppd from a dial-in port does nothing. pppd prints nothing in the debug log, and the messages log looks like Apr 9 09:44:18 debain pppd[246]: pppd 2.3.11 started by root, uid 0 Apr 9 09:44:49 debain pppd[246]: Terminating on signal 15. Apr 9 09:44:49 debain pppd[246]: Exit. [I have to kill pppd from another session] I've tried dozens of combinations of options in /etc/ppp/options (starting with the values from the PPP HOWTO). I'm baffled... -- Grant Edwards [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
