ppp dies after one second

ppp dies after one second

Anybody know why when my pppd session dies after one second?
I'm using ppp-2.3 and the modems sync, the username and password
are verified, I get my IP address from the ISP and poof...  I'm
using wvdial-1.10 to do the dialing/ppp instantiating.

Thanks,
Jim

Your permissions are messed up on some file needed by ppp. Check the PPP
how-to for documenation on this ;)

1. two ppp connetions, one routes, one doesn't


Sounds like you may have some not so good ISP's

/usr/sbin/traceroute may be helpful.  If ping finds an IP then DNS at your
ISP appears to be working.  Next try a traceroute to an internet host.  If
it gets out of your box past the remote IP of your PPP connection and dies
somewhere, find out where it dies and complain to your ISP.

If it does not get out of your box, then it is a configuration problem at
your end.
