The Problem: ------------ When dialing up my portmaster and establishing a PPP link, my FreeBSD host does not realize the proper route to the portmaster assigned PPP address. ping's to the PPP host's IP return 'host is down'. * This problem arose when I added a virtual IP to my machine.. Here is a snippet of my /etc/start_if.ed0 file: ifconfig ed0 inet 206.85.32.32 netmask 0xfffffc00 # note my network is 206.85.32-35 ifconfig ed0 alias 206.85.32.33 netmask 0xffffffff ifconfig ed0 alias 206.85.32.34 netmask 0xffffffff [..this configuration works FINE!..] The problem started happening as soon as I added this line: ifconfig ed0 alias 206.85.34.1 netmask 0xffffffff I can make the "broken" PPP link work if I manually fix the route tables. Any ideas? Thanks.. (please email any responses directly to me..) --Steve (http://pr.erau.edu/~swaits)
