How can tell from the pppd logs, why a connection was terminated? I found the entry on for non-active connections. The entry for time-limits is based on my own scripting so I know where/what that entry is located. The majority of the disconnects are; (I believe this a normal disconnect) LCP terminated by peer Hangup (SIGHUP) modem hangup Connection terminated An inactive connection will log: Terminating connection due to lack of activity Connection terminated Connections 0-1min; Hangup (SIGHUP) modem hangup NOTE: No "LCP term by peer" entry. Extra Debugging logs the Hex value of the LCP term request. sent(or rcvd) LCP TermAck id=0xN where N=(2,4,5,6,26) But if pppd quits because;: 1) Lost carrier 2) Client is not responding (such as excessive phone line noise) Anyone no how to cipher the difference? thanks in advance ;-) -- robert canary system services OhioCounty.Net [EMAIL PROTECTED] (270)298-9331 Office (270)298-7449 Fax -- To unsubscribe: mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe" as the Subject.
