Hi,
I am having a problem connecting to our PPP server (RedHat 5.2) the first
time. Sometimes I need to try 2 or 3 times before I attach (The connection
drops with an error). If I redial I get in. From the messages it looks
like the kernel is taking to long to register the ppp line. The attached
file shows a sequence where I needed 2 tries to connect. Notice that the
first attempt fails before the:
kernel: PPP: version 2.2.0 (dynamic channel allocation)
happens. Then the second attempt (which is successful) happens before the
"ppp line discipline successfully unregistered".
I am trying to replace our Solaris PPP server with this Linux PPP server
but will not be able to if users need to try to connect 2 or 3 times. Any
suggestions? How do I make sure the kernel ppp line is up before the pppd
drops the connection? As far as I am concerned it can just stay up (it
does not need to come up and down all the time). Solaris just keeps the
ppp network configured...
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance...
