I'm having a hell of a time getting this to work... Any suggestions? I have two systems that have dedicated IP addrs running "ppp -auto" to and from each other. The connections work, everything syncs up, life is good. However: After the first time PPP makes a successful connection, one of the two systems (the one making the call) decides that it's local IP should be 10.100.4.1 (example), which IS the proper IP addr for that machine. (The IP addr is 10.0.0.1 when PPP starts up on that box, as specified by the "set ifaddr" line.) When the session hangs up, the tun0 iface controlled by "ppp -auto" retains that addr, not returning to 10.0.0.1. Problem is, when the other machine calls in, the incoming connection on the first machine decides that the 10.100.4.1 addr is already used by tun0, and syslogs: (tun1 is the incoming connection) Dec 26 03:13:08 devel208 ppp[1111]: tun1: IPCP: myaddr 10.100.4.1 hisaddr = 10.100.1.1 Dec 26 03:13:08 devel208 ppp[1111]: tun1: Error: iface_inAdd: ioctl(SIOCAIFADDR): 10.100.4.1: File exists Dec 26 03:13:08 devel208 ppp[1111]: tun1: Error: ipcp_InterfaceUp: unable to set ip address Dec 26 03:13:08 devel208 ppp[1111]: tun1: IPCP: deflink: LayerDown: Interface configuration error ! ...I understand WHY this is blowing up, but so far, I haven't found a way to fix it.
