Hello Linux-friends and DataFast,
I'm new to the linux-ppp list (I'm log time over due).
Today I asked my ISP (DataFast) to give ma a static IP, and he did
(very quickly). Unfortunately Now I'm disconnected when I leave the host
idle for more than say, 2 minutes. I'm trying to solve this problem from
my end.
When I run top on a remote host, the connection stays alive. I looked in
/var/log/messages (linux RH 6.1 with pppd update) and notices a messages
as follows:

Please note "Unsupported Protocol". Next I installed the latest version
I could find, and found version ppp-2.3.11-1.i386.rpm and installed it
(rpm -Uvh ppp-2.3.11-1.i386.rpm), all seemed OK. After reading the
"README.linux" file I setup the syslog options to log to /var/log/ppplog
and console. Here is what I got when dialing into the ISP

Notice the 2nd Last line: " CCP [ConfRej id=0x2] . " I figured it
worth adding the noccp option to pppd
and got this next time I connected:

Any suggestions? I really don't wan't to be running top or pinging a
host every minute to keep alive. Before today I've managed to stay
connected to this ISP (DataFast) for days without a problem and now
trouble begins. I have tried my old ISP and had no problems with
timeouts (Telstra bigpond). Can I do anything from my side (I think it's
a problem from their side or incompatability or something)?
I need to use this connection to support my clients 7 days a week. Any
quick replies welcome.
Regards,
Christopher Welsh
