Please, I'm on the verge of a divorece, and going crazy I really
need someones help that has a better handle on this than I, it would be worth
a reward $$$$$ if one of you could help me understand this better and get
this up and running properly.
I'm trying to setup a Linux 2.0 kernal box with a cyclades 16 multi port
card. I want to upgrade to get past the 16 channel barrier with Cslip and Dip
that's presently running my olderLinux system. Would love to be able to
switch overto PPP if I can. I've installed mgetty to act as a termial for
dial-ins only.
I used a Win box to dial in (TEST) using trumpet and it answered me with a
with full login including returning a ping, but I couldn't travel any where
using Netscape,etc.. I'm really clueless on how much of the old system is
going to be used with mgetty,etc/defaults,inittab, etc.
This is my configs so far for Cslip I tried.. (Oh yes IP fowarding
and gatewaying is configed in the kernal..
/etc/inittab d1:23:respawn:sbin/mgetty /dev/ttyCy
/dev crw-rw-r-- 1 uucp uucp 19, 0 Oct.17...ttyCy
/etc/rc.d/rc.serial ${SETSERIAL} /dev/ttyCy spd_vhi
/etc/diphosts
ttyCy::206.58.XXX.XXX:206.58.XXX.XXX:255.255.255.0:"line 1"
DIAL-IN:CSLIP,296
So when I couldn't getCslip to work I switched over to PPP and
I could'nt get Win95 or win trumpet to login Automatically, but
when I tried manual login using trumpet it logged in a linux shell
I can telnet or ping anywhere as if I where at my terminal but if
I hit the esc key to enable a ppp session it's the end of the line
can't travel anywhere..I'm missing part of the picture here..
My PPP config. setting whereas follows..
dev/
d1:23:respawn/sbin/mgetty /dev/ttyCy
etc/ppp/options.ttyCy
proxyarp
crtsscts
206.58.81.8:206.58.81.200
usr/local/etc/mgetty+sendfax/login.config
AutoPPP/ - ppp /usr/sbin/pppd crtscts modem auth -chap +pap login
proxyarp server:client
Please: Help, I've no
one to turn to on this.. and I can't let it go untell it works or prove it
doesn't..I've been working on it for month straight now and it's starting to
really get to me .....
