In article <DEvD12.3uE@cview.com> you write: > >When I run ppp -direct on a ttyline, this is what I get: [...] >can't find ifindex >open_tun: No such file or directory blah. this is a problem I reported way back - and no one even blinked. I have sl0-7, ppp0-7, tun0-7, bpf0-7 and a few other devices. the problem is that ppp is probing with a buffer that can hold like 32/4 = 8 devices. so if you have more then 8 devices configured, you are... errr... screwed? >authentication [i.e. FORCE them to use a single IP address after they >login no matter what]? And how do I get around the open_tun error? yeah, check the archives - there was a cute little script for creating dynamic ppp server (allocating static IP # according to the tty they log in through). in either case, check ftp://ftp.cview.com/pub/FreeBSD and you will find my version of dynamic pppd server as well as ppp patch to get around the ifindex problem.
