I remember seeing this posted about a year ago, but I couldn't google it....
one my business server, I run Verizon DSL and PPPoE. I setup it up like with the example they used on Freebsddairy. the problem I ran into, after about 1 week is that the connection just died. everything is lit up, no log entries in the ppp.log. the only solution was a 'killall ppp' and restarting in about a minute later, and everything is fine... however, after i did that, I noticed my IP changed. whereas i've closed the connection b4 and reopened it and got the same IP. Does this have something to do with ppp not accepting a renewed DHCP IP address? is there anyway to fix this, except to used cron to kill it everynight? please CC me, thanx --- doug reynolds | the maverick | [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
