Surely I only need tun0, for PPP? Yep (and you always need ``lo0''). > I also know what the lo0 lookback is.

Where is that > enabled/disabled? ``sl0'' is a slip device (slattach/sliplogin). It can be removed. ``lp0'' is a IP over parallel port device. If you never want to use a laplink-style parallel cable to connect machines you can remove it. > ed0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 > inet 203.1.96.5 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 203.1.96.255 > inet 203.1.96.150 netmask 0xffffffff broadcast 203.1.96.150 > inet 203.1.96.151 netmask 0xffffffff broadcast 203.1.96.151 > inet 203.1.96.152 netmask 0xffffffff broadcast 203.1.96.152 > inet 203.1.96.153 netmask 0xffffffff broadcast 203.1.96.153 > ether 00:00:c0:4f:7a:54 > lp0: flags=8810<POINTOPOINT,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 > tun0: flags=8051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 > inet 203.1.96.1 --> 203.26.20.131 netmask 0xffffff00 > sl0: flags=c010<POINTOPOINT,LINK2,MULTICAST> mtu 552 > ppp0: flags=8010<POINTOPOINT,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 > lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 16384 > inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 > > > Now, also, I am getting these warnings at start up. > > ppp[181]: Warning: No available tunnel devices found (Device busy). > ppp[181]: Warning: bundle_Create: No such file or directory > > However, PPP does come up, and actually starts up. > This is the configs related to it. > The appropriate bits in /etc/sysconfig: > > network_interfaces="lo0 ed0 tun0" > ifconfig_lo0="inet localhost" > ifconfig_ed0="inet 203.1.96.5 netmask 255.255.255.0" > ifconfig_tun0= > # > router=NO > > > *********************************** PPP setups. ppp.conf: > # PPP setups. ppp.conf: > # Default setup. > default: > set log Phase Chat Connect command > set device /dev/cuaa0 > set speed 57600 > set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \"\" > ATZ OK-AT-OK ATM0E1Q0&C1&D2 OK \\dATDT\\T TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT" > > ################ > # tpgi > ############### > tpgi: > set phone 49440894 > set login " Username:-\\r-Username: xxxxx Password: xxxxx choice:> ppp" > set timeout 120 > set hangup "\"\" AT OK-AT-OK ATZ OK" > set redial 30 0 > set ifaddr 203.1.96.1 203.26.20.131 > add default HISADDR > #===== > > ********************************* PPP.linkup: > # PPP.linkup: > # By default > # > MYADDR: > 203.1.96.1: > # > > > Now, when the system is booting, > it tellms me there is no route to delete? and > it shows the ifconfig tun line TWICE. > tun0: flags=8051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 > tun0: flags=8051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 Try putting a ``set -x'' line at the top of /etc/rc. This will make your next boot-up verbose enough to find out why ppp is being started twice.

Use the ``set reconnect'' command in your config to get ppp to redial after an unexpected disconnection. > Any pointers would be thankfully accepted, > > Cheers > Robert > > -- > Support Whirled Peas.
