Both the LCP messages and the chat response suggest that there is no answer from the
other end. There can be a couple of reasons for this:
1) Your modem does (not) adapt to the line speed. Use a dumb terminal (Or Minicom, if
you
have it installed) and manually dial your ISP. Check whether you get a Connect response
and at what speed. See if you receive any data at all. Check your modem settings using
AT&V1 or something like that (could also be AT\S, depending on the brand). If in doubt,
do a factory reset. Anyway, interspeeding should be ON.
2) Your ISP doesn't support (async) PPP on this line. Again, using a dumb terminal may
give the anwer.
Have u tried connecting to ur ISP with ur Windoze? Does that work?

There is another possible solution...
With that number of users and the amount of turnover your organization
probably has, managing the users via any solution must be a
nightmare...The authentication method used which is REALLY easy to
manage, and works almost universally is RADIUS. There are some free
versions of Radius type authentication software out there, but if you
are supporting a network with that kind of userbase, a central database
which manages users would scale really well...could be your answer.
See http://www.funk.com and look for their steel-belted radius server,
they have the support infrastructure needed, this method also allows
domain auth for NT domains, and can be used for user authentication for
dial-in accounts, firewall accounts...it integrates nicely.
as for the amount of support they have for linux I don't know...although
there are others out there.

I'm gonna call you on this. Where did you get these figures from? I am

But as Stalin stated so eloquently, the death of a single person is a

We are using automount on RedHat 5.1 and get the following error

Crossposted-To: comp.os.linux.admin
Perhaps you're running into a situation which I've seen before on other
flavors of UNIX. The scenario goes like this: A process is sending some
output to a device which gets locked up or disconnected for some reason.
Killing the process will make it call exit(), but the exit() code within the
kernel then ignores all signals, including SIGKILL (kill -9). The exit()
code then goes through all open files, and closes them. When it gets to the
file corresponding to the locked/disconnected device, the driver may sleep,
waiting for its output to drain. Unless the device can be unlocked or
reconnected, nothing can be done. Doing another kill -9 won't help, since
SIGKILL is being ignored, and the driver is usually sleeping at a
non-interruptible priority anyway.
I used to be able to duplicate it by doing something like hitting ctrl-s on
a terminal while using "cat" to display a large file (the ctrl-s would
suspend the output). Then, killing cat's parent shell from another terminal
would get it into that situation. This used to occur on NCR's Tower
systems; at that time, we put in a workaround where you could have exit()
disable all signals except for SIGKILL. But with our current systems
(WorldMark / 3000 series), I haven't seen the problem occur.
I don't recall whether or not Linux has a "crash" utility which will let you
examine the kernel stack trace for running processes. If it does, you'd see
exit(), close(), and then some driver routine which eventually called
sleep().

It would help to know what the error message said. Just venturing a
guess here:
1. Are your ISP's nameservers set up in /dtc/resolv.conf?
2. Do you have the defaultroute option on the ppp link?
What does the routing table look like?

How does IP Masquerading compare to using a proxy server (such as socks5)
as far as security? I'm trying to decide which approach to use for
a small office LAN's Internet access. We currently use a Windows-based
proxy server (Wingate) which at least in theory is supposed to block
all requests inititated from the outside. (Wingate basically works OK
but we're all getting tired of Windows crashing regularly...)

Subject: Help Configuring Static IP...
Date: Thu, 8 Jul 1999 11:40:24 -0700
Hello to all,
I have a linux box running Red Hat 5.2 and it is set up as a server only. I
also have a cable modem that up till yesterday was giving me dynamic IP
addresses. This was no problem I was simply using the dhcp and whatever
address it gave me, I used.
Now I have a static IP address but can't get the server to reconize it. It
still comes up with a dhcp address.
I did use the netcfg program and configured the dhcp to the new IP address
but this didn't work either.
It's probably obvious that this is new to me, but I would truly appreciate
any help I can get, to get this server on it's own IP address.
What am I missing?
Thanks

Subject: demand ppp, dynamic IP, and ipcp-accept-*
Date: 8 Jul 1999 16:13:44 -0400
I'm trying to setup dial on demand (and ipchains) for the ubiquitous linux
router/dialer box.
Everything seems to be working correctly except for acquiring the dynamic local ip.
My ppp options contains both ipcp-accept-remote and ipcp-accept-local.
However, on dialing, the connection is made and the remote ip address is reset
correctly, but
the local ip never gets reset, remaining 192.168.0.1, the ip on the local net.
The same setup without the demand dialing enabled (or ipcp-accept-*) dials in without
problem, grabbing both ip's.
pppd is 2.3.7 and the kernel is 2.2.5, both from a fresh redhat 6.0 installation.
Is this a problem with my ISP? Others seem to have this working with no problems at
all.
tia,
