just upgraded to ppp-2.3.11-8mdk and getting the following
Jul 22 06:06:40 localhost pppd[1722]: pppd 2.3.11 started by root, uid 0
Jul 22 06:06:40 localhost ifup-ppp: pppd started for ppp0 on /dev/modem at 11520
0
Jul 22 06:07:04 localhost pppd[1722]: Serial connection established.
Jul 22 06:07:04 localhost pppd[1722]: Couldn't create new ppp unit: Inappropriat
e ioctl for device
Jul 22 06:07:04 localhost pppd[1722]: Hangup (SIGHUP)
Jul 22 06:07:04 localhost pppd[1722]: Exit.
I think /dev/ppp is supposed to be 'c 108 0'.
I checked /dev/ppp after upgrade and it's coming up with null
char device. Did a 'mknod /dev/ppp c 108 0' to create correct
ppp device and that solved the ioctl device problem.
I'm using rpm-3.0.4-0.11mdk not the newest rpm package.
