Hi,
I've tried the suggestions of folk who have responded to my plea for
help (: ... alas I still have the same problem.
I've re-compiled the Kernel, with ppp being a module which is insmoded
along with it's friends.
I've included the output of route and ifconfig for both the server and
client below.
My most perplexing issue is the fact that with a Win95 client the Linux
Server works 100%, and with a commercial ISP the Linux Client works 100%.
I'm fairly certain (due to pings being TX'd ok, but RX'd as errors) that
there is a corruption of sorts in the packet transmission. I don't know
why though. Could it be an authentication issue? Surely not?
One glimmer of hope is that I now have this error on both Linx Client & Server.
> Client: Dec 11 09:43:33 defiant pppd[7888]: CCP: timeout sending Config-Requests
> Server: Dec 11 10:02:39 mail pppd[1119]: CCP: timeout sending Config-Requests
Despite the timestamp these two "errors" happen at +- the same time
Any more help would be *greatly* appreciated (I though that this would be an
easy exercise! (: )
Kind Regards
Paul
