Folks,

I am a newbie, be gentle with me.

My Configuration is :-

        DLink DSL-300+ ADSL modem
        Bering 1.2

My situation is as follows:-

        The modem manages a pppoa connection with my ISP.
        Bering uses pump to communicate with the modem.

In general terms, this setup is working and I have full access to the
internet from the machines on the internal network and from the LRP box.

The problem is two-fold in that my daemon.log file is growing at an
alarming rate with messages from the pump daemon.  The first reason that
this is causing a problem is that each lease renewal is causing 25 to 30
lines to be written in the log.  The second reason that this is causing
a problem is that for some reason pump renewal is firing every 45
seconds or so.

What I would like to achieve is set a more realistic lease renewal
period than 45 seconds and secondly reduce the number of lines that pump
writes to the log when it does renew.

I have tried entering the command "pump -I eth0 -l 10" at the command
line which I thought should set the lease time to 10 hours.  It appears
to have no effect.

My pump.conf and pump.shorewall files have not been changed from the
standard files distributed with Bering 1.2

This has led me to conclude that the dlink adsl modem is controlling the
lease time and I would need to reconfigure it to fix the first part of
my problem.  Is that a reasonable conclusion?

Any suggestions?
