Shut up fartbrain. I'll stay if I feel like it. Nobody has to tell
nobody to leave. I can do all the name-calling and insulting and
shouting if I want to fartbrain. Besides, I not only see it as fun but
I see it as a duty.

Without question this is the most frequently asked question relating
to PPP.  There is a section on it in the PPP-HOWTO, search for
"not 8 bit clean".

You _should_ be doing PPP right, which is to say: configure pppd with
chat to make the connection.

Another thing is that the kernel level PPP support you show is 2.3.3
which suggests you might be running a 2.1.x kernel.  I would strongly
recommend getting ppp-2.3.5 in that case.

Nick,
Have the same problem when I upgraded from 5.0 to 5.2.  I had a working
system before and now it thinks my pcmcia/eth card is memory!!!!  Check your
/var/log/messages file for messages.  It also can not find irq 10 for
pcmcia, only irq 11 for pcmcia which in Windoz is the eth.  I have
reinstalled pcmcia and trippled checked everything.  Reading the HOWTO does
not hint as to my sysptoms.
Could you check /proc/ioports and tell me if you see an io address assigned
to pcmcia.  What card are you using?

>  AT&FX4&C1&D3M0$SB115200S7=60S0=1&W

Got it to work:  connection1 doesn't seem to use PAP/CHAP, so it just
expects the login and password to go through the phone line.  For this,
the ppp-on-dialer script works fine, the login and password are simply
transmitted, once the serial connection is up, pppd takes over.  This
seems less secure however than connection2.

connection2 uses PAP, so although I still don't know what the "AT" stuff
is, I don't care.  What I had to do to get it working was realize that
the serial connection (stuff in ppp-on-dialer sript) was set up once
the CONNECT verification was received.  From then on, ppp-on-dialer should
finish and let pppd take over.  Now, pppd knows what to do with the "AT"
stuff and continues from there.  One more thing I needed in the
/etc/ppp/options file is to let pppd know that the user id and password
are now sitting in the /etc/ppp/pap-secrets file.  This seems to have
been accomplished through the "user <id>" option in the /etc/ppp/options
file.

So, in summary: if your ISP doesn't use PAP/CHAP, you should be able
to provide the login info right through the dialer (but this seems less
secure).  If your ISP does use PAP/CHAP, you shouldn't wait for the
(ogin:) and (assword:) prompts in your dialer, instead stick the
login info into either the pap-secrets or chap-secrets file, depending
on what your ISP uses.

...and watch your /var/log/messages and /var/log/ppp.log files via
tail -f, it helps :)

: Try and get rid of that last 'CONNECT' in your chat or ppp connection
: script.  (You have two "CONNECT" statements, I'm thinkin').  Your
: connection is timing out waiting for that last 'CONNECT' to come thru.

Right!  I missed this, but the IRQ needs to be corrected too or you will
spend a *lot* of time on line. :)

Subject: Okay, this is a tough one, using NT PDC for logins into my Linux box
Date: Sat, 2 Jan 1999 13:27:31 -0500

I want to use my NT PDC to be the login authenticator for my Linux machine.
I don't know if it is possible to do that.  I am not just talking Samba
logins, but initial logins.  Any ideas?

I would like all the existing user accounts in the network to be available
to my Linux machine instead of making new ones.

Please help.

Hi,

The daemons are timing out trying to resolve their own hostname.  Make sure
you are using reserved ip addresses eg, 192.168.xx.xx.  Otherwise you may
have collisions with names of real places on the internet as far the
nameservers are concerned.

I would personally would use /etc/hosts with your machine such that:

127.0.0.1       localhost
192.168.1.3     myhostname.yourispdomain.com myhostname

where 192.168.1.3 is the IP of your machine and 192.168.1.0 is the local
ethernet (netmask 255.255.255.0)

'ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.3 netmask 255.255.255.0' to bring it up...

'route add -net 192.168.1.0' for routing say...

And a /etc/resolv.conf of...

search mydomain myispdomain
nameserver 209.30.0.9  
nameserver 209.30.0.100

..where the nameservers are the real ones you use. I am assuming this
what you might want.

It is important to get the hostname issue right because problems will
show up left and right with things like: slow Sendmail,
slow telnet logons, broken Samba browsing, slow Emacs start-ups, etc.

Hope this helps,

Dave

Check out http://www.apache.org/docs/vhosts/index.html this get you in
the right direction.  Do you have your pc's ip's setup to use the
addition ip address's?  Here is a quick primer to get that going on
that, was going to locate a how-to but I have done it on 3 vhosts of my
own over here.
In make menuconfig (same as make config it just uses a menu type
screen).
Go into networking options and select Network aliasing.  Cursor down to
it and type Y .  Then go down to aliasing support and type M to make it
a module.  Build your kernel and be sure to do make modules   then do
make modules_install  .  That will build your modules and install them.
Reboot the machine with the new kernel and edit your rc.local (it just
put it here because it is the last rc file to be read on bootup) and put
the follow in, i will use one of my vhost's as an example
/sbin/insmod /usr/src/linux/modules/ip_alias.o
/sbin/ifconfig eth0:0 www.linearnet.org
/sbin/route add -host www.linearnet.org dev eth0:0

You only have to do insmod once then repeat lines 2 and 3 for each host
you want to have.  Your vhosts start at 0:0 then go on to 0:1, 0:2 etc
etc.
If you need more specific instructions just ask.
