 yes!  thank you.  I have also had this problem, though I found that if I
 try to pon as root it works.  I used to just be ok until I updated my
 testing version the other day.  I look forward to the fix...
 

ISTR that when I upgraded to woody I had the same problem, root could
dial but not a user.  Checked /dev/ttyS0, my modem port, and found it
was root root, changed it to root dip ,it worked, and promptly forgot 
about it.

upgrade to testing now ppp not working

2001-08-01 Thread carol



Hi,
Has anyone else had a problem with ppp dial up 
after upgrading to testing?
Everything was working fine, now when I use 'PON', 
the system dialls and connects fine but then there is no more activity (send or 
receive).
I have used pppconfig to make sure the settings 
haven't changed. I was using static DNS with Worldonline. The 2 DNS server 
address's are in the file /etc/resolv.conf and also in 
/etc/ppp/resolv.conf for good measure :)
I also tried changing to dynamic DNS but this did 
not work too.
I tried pinging the dns servers but I get no 
response and no send or receive activity.
I tried 'plog' and no file exists.
I tried /var/log/ppp-connect-errors and it 
was empty
I looked in the archives and someone mentioned the 
wrong default gateway but I couldnt find anymore detail.
I am running out of ideas any help please guys 
?

Regards

Wayne.
