Hello all, I have been pulling my hair out the last couple of days trying to get ISDN under Freebsd to work with my ISP (in case anyone cares, myOKAY.net, german ISP). Every time isdnd establishes a connection to my ISP, it switches to state 4 and immediately disconnects again, giving either "normal call clearing (local)" or "normal call clearing (remote)" as the reason. This happens after 0 seconds. I changed all the idle timouts, unitlength and all that, because I thought maybe they were set wrong and isdnd took 0 secs as the timeout. But to no avail. I also tried switching from CHAP to PAP and back, thinking that maybe the error was there. I gave my proper myauthname and myauthsecret in both cases. Nothing. Immediate disconnect. Strangely enough I recall my dialup working about 3 times when I initially set it up. It dialed in ok, and stayed online for idle-timeout seconds. Then, just like (black) magic, it stopped working and has ever since. I tried to dial in to another ISP and somehow isdnd switched to state 3 (have no idea what that is) and stayed online. I went through all the config options for my real isp again, but still no dice. I'm really getting frustrated now. I read somewhere that some isps send a kind of packet that causes isdnd to disconnect. Also heard that there was a patch available, but couldn't find it. If anyone could help me out (maybe you've stumbled across this sort of problem before), it would be greatly appreciated. As long as I cannot get isdn ppp to work under freebsd, I'm stuck to using windoze to connect to the net, and you all know what kind of a torture that is :). Thanks very much in advance! -Philipp Michel "Alcohol & Calculus don't mix.
