I couldn't find this in the mailing list archives. I can connect via ppp directly no problem; after closing that connection, ppp -auto then works. However, if I try to run ppp -auto before making and breaking that first connection, I get "host is down" or "unavailable" messages, and no attempted dialup. My provider gives me dynamic IP. To connect, I'm using: ppp interactive and ppp -auto ondemand with excerpts from pertinent files follow. Any help is greatly appreciated ... -jay ### /etc/ppp/ppp.conf: default: set device /dev/cuaa0 set speed 38400 disable lqr deny lqr set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \"\" ATE1Q0 OK-AT-OK \\dATDT\ \T TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT" interactive: set phone 3012220 set login "TIMEOUT 5 login:-\\r-login: xxxxxxxx word: xxxxxxxx" set timeout 1800 ondemand: load interactive set ifaddr 0 208.192.224.5 add 0 255.255.255.0 208.192.224.5 #---------------------------------------------------------------------- ### /etc/ppp/ppp.linkup ondemand: delete ALL add 0 0 HISADDR # # Otherwide, simply add peer as default gateway. # MYADDR: add 0 0 HISADDR #---------------------------------------------------------------------- ### /etc/sysconfig network_interfaces="tun0 lo0" ifconfig_tun0="" ifconfig_lo0="inet localhost" #----------------------------------------------------------------------
