Logs aren't everything--especially with pppd(8). It won't report media failures. Aha, maybe this is what might be of some usefulness to you: pppd printing out those ``ppp0 <-> /dev/foo'' lines doesn't mean /dev/foo is OK. It happily printed these when running over a serial port, wile it wasn't able to establish a connection. When I switched the cable to the other port, everything went OK. The port worked few days before, and got apparently burned in the meantime. > * Check this or that or Trace what pppd writes/reads -- use the pppd's `pty' option. -- Jan Minar "Please don't CC me, I'm subscribed." x 4
