TWIMC:
I sent in the following question below twice before with no bites.
Somehow,
after reading all that I could find on the matter at hand, and after
trying
numerous changes, I still have no PPP connection to the WWW when my
mini-network is up. Presently, I still have the very same problem,
but the
error differs from that noted far below. My new error message is:
Oct 9 21:39:22 localhost pppd[18686]: pppd 2.3.11 started by root,
uid 0
Oct 9 21:39:22 localhost pppd[18686]: Using interface ppp0
Oct 9 21:39:22 localhost pppd[18686]: Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/ttyS2
Oct 9 21:39:24 localhost pppd[18686]: Peer is not authorized to use
remote
address XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX
Oct 9 21:39:24 localhost pppd[18686]: Connection terminated.
Oct 9 21:39:24 localhost pppd[18686]: Connect time 0.1 minutes.
Oct 9 21:39:24 localhost pppd[18686]: Sent 267 bytes, received 301
bytes.
Oct 9 21:39:24 localhost pppd[18686]: Exit.
The XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX is of course the ISP's IP address. Does anyone
know how to rectify this problem? If not this, does anyone know how
to fix this
one here below? I read and tried a variety of HOWTOs including the
Net/PPP/Networking Overview/Firewall/DNS/Named/IPCHAINS/ISP-Hookup
series. Some of these do indeed contradict one another, and so the
task becomes
somewhat more confusing.
I'd greatly appreciate a decent reply that assists.
Thanks,
Kern.
Problem #1...
I have set up a LAN that will use a modem connection to the
internet. When Samba is down, the modem connection via 'kppp'
works fine, but when Samba is up, the modem connection returns
the following whenever one tries to connect to the net via 'kppp'.
Sep 15 22:28:48 <my_local_host> pppd[10000]: By default the
remote system is required to authenticate itself
Sep 15 22:28:48 <my_local_host> pppd[10000]: (because this system
Sep 15 22:28:48 <my_local_host> pppd[10000]: but I couldn't find
any suitable secret (password) for it to use to do so.
Sep 15 22:28:48 <my_local_host> pppd[10000]: (None of the
available passwords would let it use an IP address.)
