Good day, I'm having a problem that I can't seem to find any indication of a fix on GOOGLE for and so I'm hoping that someone on this list can point me in the correct direction.
I'm running Linux Kernel 2.6.9 on a Pentium 4 using the Caldera Distribution. I installed PPP 2.4.3 and have been using it successfully for a couple of days. My problem with it is the following: I'm running a 24/7 Server and after every 12 Hour period, my I.S.P, which is Mindspring/Earthlink, drops my connection. I have the "persist" option specified to take care of this problem and so PPP should re-connect successfully. This worked perfect with my previous system using Kernel 2.4.22 and PPP 2.4.1. Unfortunatly, the "persist" option dosn't seem to be working correctly for me. At the moment the line gets dropped, PPP now gives me the following messages in my /var/log/messages file: tcflush failed: Input/output error Modem hangup tcsetattr: Invalid argument (line 962) tcsetattr: Invalid argument (line 1001) Exit. This causes me to have to bring up PPP again myself rather than having the "persist" option work as it should. This has happened each time for the last (3) re-cycle attempts with the exact same messages. If anyone has knowledge of a fix to correct this problem or an option to use, I would be glad to try them out. My Environment is: Computer: Pentium-4 Distribution: Caldera 2.3 Kernel: 2.6.9 GCC: 3.4.3 GLIBC: 2.3.3 PPP: 2.4.3 Any assistance that someone could give me to solve this problem would be greatly appreciated.
