Hi I have a machine that has been running pppd to do IP Masquerading for my little network; everything was fine, then pppd starting complaining about the connection. Then without warning pppd stopped getting responses from the modem when using chat to send modem commands. The modem RD & SD lights flash but no response was received from the modem at all. (The TR light does come on when pppd runs chat) I used other machines to diagnose the modem, which seems fine, and have figured out that I can use minicom to talk to the modem as long as I have hardware handshaking OFF and XON/XOFF on. I used stty to make sure that hardware flow control was enabled on /dev/modem. So I assume that something has gone wrong with my UART or other component of my on-board serial port and that the CTS pin is not working. I read the HOWTO and man pages and figured that I could use pppd with XON/XOFF by using nocrtscts and xonxoff options. I also used stty to set -crtscts and ixon ixoff. No effect. I have "escape FF" and "asyncmap 20A0000" options specified. Can someone tell me what I am missing that is needed to get pppd to use software flow control?
