G'Day all -
I have a quick question, I hope can be answered, because its certainly
puzzling me. I am currently running RHL5.0 with 2.0.33 kernel. I
recently installed the pppd update from redhat
rpm -q -a | grep ppp gives --> ppp-2.3.3-2
and ever since then my original ppp scripts stopped working for my
3ComImpactIQ ISDN external modem. So I used netcfg to set this up again,
and now i can only get a single channel. I went to a webpage concerning
dual-channel bonding in linux (http://www.cdc.net/~scottk/isdnbond.htm)
and tried to use the init string for the modem suggested. But to no
avail. I can only get ONE channel, where i had two synching before.
Below are my OLD ppp scripts which i simply ran as root from the command
line (./ppp-go), and also my NEW scripts created with netcfg in X.
---
ppp-go:
#!/bin/sh
/usr/sbin/pppd modem crtscts defaultroute /root/.pppscript \
connect 'chat ABORT BUSY ABORT ERROR "" ATZ OK ATD14408561010 CONNECT' \
/dev/cua0 115200
---
.pppscript:
myloginname
mypassword
(a blank line)
---
NOTE: this all worked before updating to the latest pppd

Now, i can connect and maintain a single channel but acnnot get the
second channel to bond. Anyone have ANY ideas? or suggestions?
Also i noted, and it may or may not be associated with this, that gated
is no longer running. I have seen in the list many times that this
should be nixed if its running, but i am still confused as to why> Does
anyone have a good reason why gated should or should not run?
Thanks in advance,
