PPP problems - "Dial on Demand" won't dial

PPP problems - "Dial on Demand" won't dial

Post by Darren Lay » Sun, 02 Mar 1997 04:00:00



I've installed FreeBsd 2.1.6 with an NE2000 Ethernet card (to access
other computers on my LAN) and a modem.  All is working fine for
manually dialing out. However, when I execute

ppp -auto e  (where 'e' is the name of a profile in ppp.conf)

ppp loads fine and appears to wait for requests.

(I've also examined the latest scripts as suggested by an earilier

However, when I go to look for things outside my domain, ppp does not
automatically dial up my ISP.  

Does anyone have any ideas?

You probably didn't tell it to establish a default route?

Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)

Sounds about right, but the new example files have "add 0 0 HISADDR"
in both ppp.conf and ppp.linkup.

What does the log file say (/var/log/ppp.log) ?  After ppp is running,
what does "netstat -rn" say ?

Also see the 'delete ALL' line in ppp.linkup.sample.  It's reqd for
DOD as well...

1. "Dial on Demand" always dialling...

I'm running on my linux machine Samba and Netatalk. I tried to install
Squid to give my whole Network access to the internet.

My problem is that Linux allway's connects to the internet, although
nobody requests a connection.

 In /etc/smb.conf
I activated " interface = 10.0.0.55"

I use for eht0 the IP adress 10.0.0.x
and for the ippp0 192.168.0.x

can anybody help me ?

thanx !
