Recently I installed 5.2-RC2 for testing purpose and saw an unexplainable behaviour of pppd 2.3.5. I have an old FreeBSD 4.2 running and connecting via modem with ppp to an ISP using ipfw, natd and pppd. Then I configured the 5.2-RC2 install logical identical, but it does not route any packets. I can ping ppp0 but not the default gateway. This was pppd 2.3.5. Because I did not found anything wrong, I just copied the old pppd binary version 2.3.1 from 1998 to the 5.2-RC2 test system and this works! I was really surprised, because I did not change anything except the pppd binary. Any clue what is wrong here? Is it my configuration or something in pppd? What changed in version 2.3.5? Thanks, Achim ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Here is what I configured. $ pppd user username /dev/cuaa0 57600 connect 'my script' /etc/ppp/options: modem crtscts noipdefault defaultroute netmask 255.255.255.0 /etc/rc.conf: firewall_enable="YES" firewall_type="OPEN" firewall_logging="YES" natd_enable="YES" natd_interface="ppp0" natd_flags="-dynamic " gateway_enable="YES" Kernel: options IPFIREWALL options IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE options IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE_LIMIT=100 options IPFIREWALL_DEFAULT_TO_ACCEPT options IPDIVERT options TCP_DROP_SYNFIN options IPSTEALTH
