Hi all�
This is my first message to the list so I send regards to everyone here
:o).
I have set up an PPP server in a machine with RH 6.0, all seems work but
the client and the server can not communicate themselves. I will explain
my scenary:
I am using mgetty for users login, with autoppp. IPV4_FORWARD is
enabled in /etc/sysconfig/network
I think that all the options files and scripts are well set up as an
article in the linuxgazette.
Well, as I say all works ok but affter the connection a simple ping
between the server ip and the client(windows95) ip dont work, the
windows machines receives bytes because the two small computers in the
systray blinks and give the total received bytes :oD, all the packets in
the server appears as lossed in a ifconfig call.
But what is my surprise that all works if the windows machine has the
ethernet card enabled at negotiation time
because all the tests was made with it disabled, I am getting crazy :o).
When the card is enabled the ppp link works
(if after negotiation I disable it all works too) and when the card is
disabled the ppp link doesnt work.
What is happening?
These are some cat's that I made in the server machine:
