Hi there,
I've have a terrible difficult problem (also terrible difficult to explain)
I've a linux-box connected on our local intranet and there are two internal
modems used for dail-in servers.
I setup a ip-firewall and i use ip-masquarading.
The linux-box is also a web-server.
When i dail-in from a windows98 PC, all the services came up and i'm
connected.
I can use telnet, ftp , X-windows... in short everything is working fine.
But sometime after a non predictable time the dataflow begins to sputter and
sometimes finally it stops.
Then any service will not work anymore (telnet, ftp, http...)
Even when i turn off the ip-firewall en ip-masquarading.
It's stand out that with ftp , this problem occurs faster than a telnet.
Then i must disconnect and re-dail-in to the server and then i'm back
on-line.
I've tesame problem at the second modem. And other users have tesame problem
when they dail-in from there homes.
So i think there no problem with the phone-lines.
If a use the services over intranet , there is no problem with the
data-flow.
I've have installed the latest ppp-version 2.3.9 and i recompiled the kernel
for the good drivers.
Here is the used ppp-configuration :
init /etc/ppp/init-ttyS3
aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd:
115200
crtscts
modem
login
-detach
ipcp-accept-remote
lock
auth
debug
Here is the init-file :
#!/bin/sh
# A chat script to initialise the 56K-modem.
#
/usr/sbin/chat -v -t 0 ABORT 'NO DAILTONE' ABORT 'NO CARRIER' ""
"\d+++\dATH" OK ATZ OK "AT&Q6%C0S0=1" OK "" CONNECT
Can anybody give me a hint to start looking for a solution ? (if you want
more info, don't hesitate to contact me)
Have anybody got tesame problem ?
Any help is very welcome. Thanks in advance.
