Hi FreeBSD'ers, I've just upgraded to 4.9-RC (from 4.2) and I'm really happy with everything except ppp.
Whenever I start ppp (with ppp -auto pmdemand) it immediately starts to dial - after connecting it briefly sends and receives a minimal amount of data then sits there idly. One other problem I've got with my upgrade is that I'm getting pam errors: Oct 26 20:26:25 stoat login: no modules loaded for `login' service Oct 26 20:26:25 stoat login: pam_open_session: Permission denied (related?) I've read the ppp faq and this question is covered and it says sendmail is the often the culprit. This rang loud bells as I saw that the more recent version of sendmail has depreciated the 'nodns' feature. So I tried rebooting without sendmail running, but still the same problem. I tried killing off a few daemons including inetd, lpd, usbd.. but no joy. I added "log All +tcp/ip" to get the full output, but I don't know enough about this stuff to go further. I initially get the following lines in the log: Oct 26 21:17:32 stoat ppp[466]: tun0: TCP/IP: OUT <0>: fe80::240:95ff:fe44:3e11 ---> ff02::1:ff44:3e11 (72) Oct 26 21:17:32 stoat ppp[466]: tun0: TCP/IP: OUT ICMP: :::135 ---> ff02::1:ff44:3e11 (16/64) I've uploaded the rest of the conversation to: http://www.carter-hitchin.clara.co.uk/logs/ppp.log.gz My setup is an isolated workstation (no LAN, occasional dialup). Here are some outputs: [516]->uname -a FreeBSD stoat.clara.net 4.9-RC FreeBSD 4.9-RC #0: Sat Oct 18 13:56:46 BST 2003 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/STOAT i386 [517]->cat /etc/ppp/ppp.conf default: #set log Phase Chat LCP IPCP CCP tun command set log All ident user-ppp VERSION (built COMPILATIONDATE) set device /dev/cuaa0 set speed 115200 set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \ \"\" ATM1 OK \\dATDT\\T TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT" enable dns pmdemand: set timeout 300 # 3 mintue idle timer (the default) set phone XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX set authname XXXXX set authkey XXXXXX add default HISADDR # Add a (sticky) default route set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0 255.255.255.255 [68]->cat /etc/resolv.conf domain=stoat nameserver 195.8.69.7 nameserver 195.8.69.12 [69]->cat /etc/hosts ::1 localhost localhost.clara.net 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.clara.net stoat.clara.net 127.0.0.1 stoat stoat.clara.net 127.0.0.1 carter-hitchin.clara.co.uk I'd really appreciate some help here - I'm stuck in being able to identify precisely what is using the link.
