Hi guys!
I moved slip link from our linux box to freebsd ppp link to our ISP.
Problem: pppd dies when ppp-echo-* are enabled in /etc/ppp/options
(well lcp-echo-interval 50
lcp-echo-failure 5)
and the link were dying after ~1-2 minutes of uptime with diagnostic message:
excessive lcp-echo dropouts or something like that.
Quetion: anybody running pppd-2.1.2 in freebsd with lcp-echo enabled?
Ok, little script pinging term serv port on isp killing pppd when
no packets go through saves the day, I wonder however what's wrong with pppd.
I tried to compile 2.1.2d from sunsite to no avail: Longyear told me he
doesn't care that {a,b,c,d} patchlevels ain't compiling in other ports :-(
however I do not think it was fixed there either: according to linux
mailing lists people are experiencing the situation that is closely reminds
mine.
ISP uses 32 port portmaster term server albeit I'm not sure whether anybody
else of their customer base has lcp-echo enabled...
Thanx, keep me in Cc: I do not cope with freebas-hackers traffic.
Surely Yours,
AGL
