PPP question (my DSL is down !!)

2001-10-08 Thread Hall Stevenson

For as long as I've been using Debian, I've had DSL and never
the need to use dial-up... Last Thursday though, my DSL modem
died and I tried connecting with dial-up.

Running 'pppconfig' worked fine and I'm able to connect.
Tail'ing /var/log/messages shows everything good, up to
assigning an IP address (and depending on how I have DNS set,
receiving DNS entries). Problem is, I can't do anything...This
includes pinging a website by IP address. That rules out a DNS
problem, doesn't it ??

I can ping the address I'm assigned (local) and the remote
address that /var/log/messages shows me (remote).

I saw a recent post about the file tcp_ecn being set to
either '0' or '1'. Well, I don't have that file. I tried
'touch tcp_ecn' and it didn't work. I tried 'echo 0  tcp_ecn'
(in the proper dir) and it didn't work either, nor did it
create the file.

Hopefully my replacement modem will be showing up very soon,
but I'd still like to have the ability to use dial-up if
needed. Any ideas and/or help ??

Thanks in advance
Hall

I don't know if this is your problem, but I recently helped a friend
troubleshoot his mandrake laptop, and found that to get ppp to work we had
to bring down eth0 for some reason.  It seems like you shouldn't have to,
but you could try that, if you still have your eth0 up.

Do you have a gateway defined in /etc/network/interfaces?

If so, # (comment) it out as long as you are using ppp. PPP will set its own
default gateway. I have a similar problem when I try to use ppp on a machine
that usually connects to the net via ethernet.

Hope this helps.

You probably have a defaultroute pointing to eth0 and pppd won't replace
it.  Remove that defaultroute and ppp shoul work.

What if I was using this box as an internet gateway for other

Sure do. It points to my Linksys router/switch, 192.168.1.1.
With dial-up, that device is no longer valid.

 If so, # (comment) it out as long as you are using ppp.
 PPP will set its own default gateway. I have a similar
 problem when I try to use ppp on a machine that usually
 connects to the net via ethernet.

 You probably have a defaultroute pointing to eth0 and pppd
 won't replace it.  Remove that defaultroute and ppp shoul

Those both make perfect sense and go along with what David
Roundy said about bringing eth0 down. It seems like dial-up
and eth0 should have their own network config files, doesn't
it ??

Thanks for the ideas !

Bringing down eth0 probably removed the default route which solved the
problem above (also what others suggested).  I can verify, though,
that using a machine as an ethernet LAN = PPP WAN gateway works quite
well.  I had a 486 machine set up to do this until I got DSL.

I don't doubt that it does, but this machine probably *always*
uses ppp, right ?? That's not my case. I defined an actual
gateway, which I wouldn't do with a normal ppp config.

Yes, that box always used PPP to get to the internet.

Though if eth0 is hooked to the DSL modem, then you don't really have
a reason to have it up when the DSL is down so it shouldn't be a big
problem for you.

I think you need to change the speed specified in /etc/ppp/peers/provider
(or whatever you named your connection) to 115200. I think the system
chokes on non-standard speeds.

serial-ppp1 uses ppp0

Sure, you can give pppd the path to an ip-up and an ip-down
script which will be called when the connection comes up. 

A much cleaner way would be to run portslave, the RADIUS client.
You will let you spec all of this on a per user and per port basis.

The netmask is not a negotiated option. That is, you don't tell the
peer what netmask to use and he doesn't tell you. The netmask is 
something you assign to the interface, just as you would to an 
ethernet interface.

If you don't supply a netmask, one will be computed for you, based 
upon the class of the address (determined by the 2 high-order bits
of the IP address).

Add this line to your /etc/ppp/options file (or put it on your ppp command
line):

lcp-echo-interval 0

Your ISP does not respond to lcp-echo packets (they are used to detect if
the link has gone down).

Hope this helps,

 I know this is really not a Debian problem but I could use the help.

Run this:

grep -v '^#' /etc/ppp/options | sort -u

Do you see lcp-echo-interval ? Remove that line from /etc/ppp/options
and your connection will no longer be dropped for lack of responses
to LCP echo requests.

Yet another PPP question

1997-05-25 Thread Douglas Bates
I have been using Debian 1.3 with a 2.1.35 kernel at home.  I usually
connect to my ISP using xisp but I also have pppd configured.

Recently I upgraded to libc6.  I'm not sure that I got all the needed
pieces in place.  One side-effect of the upgrade is that both pppd and
xisp now fail immediately after establishing the connection.  After
running pppd the tail end of /var/adm/messages looks like
 May 25 10:39:10 localhost chat[200]: slip-server -- got it 
 May 25 10:39:10 localhost chat[200]: send (ppp^M) 
 May 25 10:39:10 localhost pppd[198]: Serial connection established.
 May 25 10:39:11 localhost pppd[198]: Using interface ppp0
 May 25 10:39:11 localhost pppd[198]: Connect: ppp0 -- /dev/cua1
 May 25 10:39:13 localhost pppd[198]: Hangup (SIGHUP)
 May 25 10:39:13 localhost pppd[198]: Modem hangup
 May 25 10:39:13 localhost pppd[198]: Connection terminated.
 May 25 10:39:13 localhost pppd[198]: Exit.

Any ideas where to start looking for the program that may be failing?

Most likely in the experimental kernel you are using.

Did you install libc6-dev ? I found something in the changlogfile:

glibc (2.0.3-4) unstable; urgency=low

  * Changed tzconfig to allow Canadian timezones to be selected by
name.
  * Changed libc6-dev to legally replace parts of the man-db, gettext
and ppp packages (Bug#9815 abd Bug#9825).

Hope this helps.

I use also use xisp and don't have any problems (knocking on wood), but
I didn't install libc6-dev.

Another PPP Question :(

1996-11-18 Thread Kevin Cabral
The biggest problem since I've installed Debian 4 months ago, for
me, has been the configuration of dial-up networking. I've installed all
the appropriate packages, configured the kernel, and gone through the
HOWTOs related to PPP and networking to setup such files as /etc/networks
/etc/resolv.conf and others. Yet, I cannot dialup to my ISP and establish
a network connection that can recognize systems other than my own. I hope
to, on this list, start a diagnosis of this problem with others
cooperation. So, first of all, can some kind person submit a connection
script and /etc/ppp/options file for a PPP dialup that uses PAP, but still
requires an initial login with name and password. Assuming that doesn't
work I'll submit all my appropriate networking files to the list for
critique. 

Sincere Thanks, 

Kevin
Cols, Oh
