From the keyboard of Clem Dye: > At this point, when I re-tried I would get a 'no route to host' message when > trying to ping something. Would entries in /etc/resolv.conf help here? No. You need to establish a route, see output of "man route". > Just to be clear, am I on the right track? It seems to be. > Are my config. files OK (so far)? I don't know. If i would start debugging peoples configuration files and scripts, i would not be able to do any other work, so i generally don't do that anymore. > BTW, is it possible to run isdnd via a terminal window under the KDE 1.x > desktop? Yes, why not ? Just run isdnd -f and enable some debugging output with -d. > What's confusing me a bit is trying to work-out what I should actually be > doing. I was expecting using the basic ISDN4BSD stuff to be able to ping a > non-local IP address i4b has nothing to do and does nothing with any IP or ping or this stuff. It just provides interfaces to the IP stack and its interfaces are to be handled with respect to IP traffic and routing as any other IP interface is. In short: you have to configure the interface and associated routing yourself. > For instance, I don't think that I'm dialling out. /var/log/messages or running isdnd in a terminal with option -F is your friend in finding out. hellmuth -- Hellmuth Michaelis Tel +49 40 55 97 47-70 HCS Hanseatischer Computerservice GmbH Fax +49 40 55 97 47-77 Oldesloer Strasse 97-99 Mail hm [at] hcs.de D-22457 Hamburg WWW http://www.hcs.de To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isdn" in the body of the message
