Hi,
I have a Red Hat 6.2 server, with Windows clients. The problem I am
having is that my Windows 2000 clients can't obtain the default
gateway from the server, as it is expecting to use DHCP to get this
information. (MS have kindly decided to take out the option to enter
in your gateway for Dial-up connections).
My Windows 95/98 (and of course Linux) clients have manually entered
in IP addresses and gateway, and successfully connect.
My Windows 2000 clients can connect but the gateway is incorrect.
Here is a copy of my ppp files:
/etc/ppp/options
lock
nolog
debug
/etc/ppp/options.ttyS0
auth
-chap
+pap
login
proxyarp
111.222.333.11:111.222.333.12
When the Windows 2000 client connects, the IP address becomes
111.222.333.11, however, then it accepts the 111.222.333.12 as the
gateway. And hence it won't work, because this is not the gateway!
My W2K clients are set up to obtain IP from server.
