Hi all, After hacking around after posting my previous query a few days ago, I have discovered the problem may lie with the module support. After some investigation inside my system I have discovered that should there be a problem with loading the ppp.o module, pppd will hang without logging anything, and requires a "kill" to stop pppd. The plot now thickens: If I try and type "insmod ppp" I get complaints of unresolved symbols. I then try "modprobe ppp" and the module loads fine. I then decided to get around the problem by compiling the ppp module into the kernel. I did the change with "make config", and compiled the kernel from scratch using "make dep;make clean;make zlilo;make modules;make modules_install;demod -a 2.0.34". Everything compiles fine until the point it reaches the depmod step, which bombs out like so: /lib/modules/2.0.34/net/slip.o: unresolved symbol(s) /lib/modules/2.0.34/net/ppp_deflate.o: unresolved symbol(s) /lib/modules/2.0.34/net/bsd_comp.o: unresolved symbol(s) It would seem that the code inserted from ppp v2.3.4's "make kernel" step is fundamentally incompatible with v2.0.34 of the Linux kernel. Can anyone confirm this? Regards, Graham -- - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ppp" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
