I am running pppd version 2.3 patch level 5, set up for pppoe to
maintain a DSL connection.
My Config is working great, but here it is any - missing the sensative stuff
#
# ppp.conf: PPPoE Configuration
#
default:
# PPP over Ethernet
set device PPPoE:dc1
set speed sync
set mru 1492
set mtu 1492
set ctsrts off
# monitor line quality
enable lqr
# log just a bit
set log phase tun
# insert default route upon connection
add default HISADDR
# download /etc/resolv.conf
enable dns
# enable nat
nat enable yes
papchap:
#
# edit the next three lines and replace the items in caps with
# the values which have been assigned by your ISP.
#
set authname *******************
set authkey *********
I have had several occassions to find that the interface attached to the
DSL connection is assigned 2 IP's. The connection still works for me
from the inside, and I can traffic data without a problem. However,
requests from the outside world fail. I do run a mail server and web
server off this connection, so incoming connections are kinda important.
I can't find anything in the logs to hint towards a problem. Most
times, I don't even know it has happened until I hear from a friend or
relative who depends on it.
Any thoughts?
