I've recently upgraded from Slackware 96 to Mandrake 6.0 and I am having a problem with ppp. I am successful at dialing to my ISP. But when I attempt to dial in to work, the connection dies. This is what debug reports: Sep 15 19:26:25 pokey pppd[973]: pppd 2.3.8 started by plg, uid 501 Sep 15 19:26:25 pokey kernel: ppp_ioctl: set dbg flags to 190000 Sep 15 19:26:25 pokey kernel: ppp_ioctl: set flags to 190000 Sep 15 19:26:25 pokey pppd[973]: Using interface ppp0 Sep 15 19:26:25 pokey pppd[973]: Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/ttyS1 Sep 15 19:26:25 pokey kernel: ppp_tty_ioctl: set xasyncmap Sep 15 19:26:25 pokey kernel: ppp_tty_ioctl: set xmit asyncmap ffffffff Sep 15 19:26:25 pokey kernel: ppp_ioctl: set flags to 190000 Sep 15 19:26:25 pokey kernel: ppp_ioctl: set mru to 5dc Sep 15 19:26:25 pokey kernel: ppp_tty_ioctl: set rcv asyncmap ffffffff Sep 15 19:26:25 pokey kernel: ppp_ioctl: set flags to 190000 Sep 15 19:26:44 pokey kernel: ppp: channel ppp0 closing. Sep 15 19:26:44 pokey pppd[973]: Hangup (SIGHUP) Sep 15 19:26:44 pokey pppd[973]: Modem hangup Sep 15 19:26:44 pokey pppd[973]: Connection terminated. Sep 15 19:26:44 pokey pppd[973]: Exit. The work connection is a Shiva LanRover using Terminal-based authentication. I have a US Robotics v.90 modem. This is what I have tried so far (unsuccessfully): 1. /etc/ppp/options is empty. 2. /etc/ppp/options with some options (from reading mailing list replies). 2. Pause 2 (up to 5 seconds) in kpppd. 3. Removed ppp-2.3.7 and compiled a new copy of ppp-2.3.8 from ppp-2.3.8.tar.gz. 4. Downgraded to ppp-2.3.5. 5. Verified permissions to /dev/ttyS1 and ppp. 6. Fails as root and as user. 7. Read PPP HOWTO, PPP FAQ, various Usenet and mailing lists. 8. Worked great under Slackware 96 with ppp-2.2.0f with the same kppp setup. 9. Connection successful with minicom. 10. Works with Windows 95 (on the same PC, using the same hardware) I've tried other recommendations. But I'm losing track of what I've tried. Any other helpful ideas are welcome. Paul [EMAIL PROTECTED]
