The following reply was made to PR bin/3885; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Andrew Stesin <stesin@gu.net> To: Brian Somers <brian@utell.co.uk> Cc: freebsd-gnats-submit@freebsd.org Subject: Re: bin/3885: /usr/bin/ppp -ddial sleeps forever instead of redial Date: Mon, 23 Jun 1997 23:21:16 +0300 (EEST) Dear Brian, I found what was the cause of my trouble. While configuring that site, I somewhat messed up and forgot that LQR isn't working when enabled at FreeBSD ppp side. I also hand-created another problem (it is mentioned in the manpage), redial timeouts in ppp were interfering with 'pulse-time XXX' cisco's interface command on other side. So strange enough, first connection went nice but redial wasn't able to succeed. After all that headscratching, two days ago I discovered that there weren't 'disable lqr' and 'deny lqr' clauses in my config. Adding them solved the problem. What was happening -- ppp tried to establish a connection but went asleep despite of getting packets back, because it thought that LQRs should be coming already (?) 48 hours of continuous PPPing with reconnects (inspired by wiretapping ;) went nice. So sorry for bothering you, send-pr bin/3885 should be considered closed, and my _real_ claim (as I understand now) was the fact that LQR was behaving odd. I'll upgrade my personal workstation at work to 2.2-9706XX-RELENG and redo the testing with cisco. If you want me to test some specific setup via a nullmodem between 2.2-RELENG and cisco 2511, IOS version 11.2(6+) -- I'll do this. Is the copy of PPP in http://www.freebsd.org/~brian the same as in 2.2-RELENG? or does it have some additional fixes? Thanks a lot for your helpful attention!
