Hello, oh guru-like ones:
Thank you for the suggestions regarding my PPP problems. I tried
some, but didn't get them to work. Here is what I found in my
/var/log/messages and such, perhaps you can give suggestions.
This is before I did anything from your suggestions (normal):
(/var/log/messages):
Jun 10 08:21:19 aries pppd[1850]: Serial connection established.
Jun 10 08:21:20 aries pppd[1850]: Using interface ppp0
Jun 10 08:21:20 aries pppd[1850]: Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/cua1
Jun 10 08:21:21 aries pppd[1850]: not replacing existing default

Jun 10 08:21:21 aries pppd[1850]: remote IP address
209.130.163.65
(route -n):
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref
Use Iface
209.130.163.65 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0
0 ppp0
10.2.1.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0
15 eth0
127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 0 0
3 lo
0.0.0.0 10.2.1.254 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0
4 eth0
Then I did these steps: (while the ppp0 link was up)
- route del default
- route add 209.130.163.65 ppp0
- route add default gw 209.130.163.65 ppp0
(route -n):
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref
Use Iface
209.130.163.65 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0
0 ppp0
10.2.1.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0
16 eth0

3 lo
0.0.0.0 209.130.163.65 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0
3 ppp0
That didn't work, so I tried doing these steps:
- route del default
- route add default ppp0
(route -n):
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref
Use
Iface
209.130.163.65 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0
0 ppp0
10.2.1.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0
17 eth0
127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 0 0
3 lo
0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 U 0 0
1 ppp0
I still cannot ping anyone but that remote IP address of my ISP.
Can anyone help?
SYSTEM: RedHat 5.2 Apollo, PPP 2.3.5
