Tomk meister: I understand and I'll try to help.
First. Perhaps you might consider a Linux upgrade, then perhaps not. I not very knowledgeable about Linux and have no knowledge at all about Linux 1.2 or maybe I'm dyslexic and it is 2.1. I have the exact same situation with my ISP. Within my /etc/ppp.chatscript I have: name LOGINNAME (upper case letter have to be substituted ) word \qPASSWORD\q vice ppp Why you ask "vice" ; Because the ISP supports ppp, cslip and slip. Therefore when a prompt is received asking what service I would like to use, the system answers "ppp". Within my /etc/ppp.options_out I have: defaultroute /dev/cua2 57600 persist Why you ask again; This I believe tells ppp that setup the physical interface as the defaultroute using device /dev/cua2 or COM3 in M$ terms and 57600 is the DTE speed and I don't remember what the persist does. Within my /etc/ppp/options I have: noipdefault defaultroute I didn't touch anything else. I copied no_ppp_on_boot to ppp_on_boot I placed within ip-up just for the hell of it. ipfwadm -F -a accept -m -P all -S X.X.X.0/24 -D 0.0.0.0/0 I placeed with ip-down ipfwasm -F -d accept -m -P all -S X.X.X.0/24 -D 0.0.0.0/0 to shut off what was done in ip-up ( this is for masquerading ) All ip addresses, compression, will and wants will be addressed via the IPCP, NCP and LCP negotiation when following a successful login and protocol selection. I hope this helps. ---------- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 06, 1997 3:55 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: debian-user@lists.debian.org Subject: Re: TO the holier-than-thou guru Peter Iannarelli writes: > > Drop your linen and stop your grinen: > > To all those; and you know who you are, who are whinnnnnnnnnnnnnng > about Debian PPP.
