I'm trying to setup netscape on win31 to dial into my home computer on /dev/ttyd1. I setup the getty and it seems to be working okay as I'm getting a login: prompt and after logging on a ppp session is starting. Initially, it wasn't working and I thought the problem was DNS related, but it was a GATEWAY problem. I added options "GATEWAY" to my kernel and did a recompile and it seems to work fine now. now my problem is netscape has a bug where it automatically disconnects after a couple of minutes - even if I select 15 min of inactivity or don't disconnect. But it works great for the 2 minutes I have it working! :)) After a disconnect, the port is hung and a kill command won't remove the processes associated with the previously disconnected ppp session. Here's a sample of the output from the ps command: ***************output from ps command******************** PID TT STAT TIME COMMAND 150 v0 Is+ 0:00.02 /usr/libexec/getty Pc ttyv0 151 v1 Is+ 0:00.40 -csh (csh) 485 v2 Is+ 0:00.03 /usr/libexec/getty Pc ttyv2 153 v4 Is+ 0:00.03 /usr/libexec/getty Pc ttyv4 154 v5 Is+ 0:00.03 /usr/libexec/getty Pc ttyv5 155 v6 Is+ 0:00.03 /usr/libexec/getty Pc ttyv6 156 v7 Is+ 0:00.02 /usr/libexec/getty Pc ttyv7 157 v8 Ss 0:00.50 -csh (csh) 551 v8 R+ 0:00.01 ps 158 v9 Is 0:00.40 -csh (csh) 164 v9 S+ 0:21.61 ppp 372 d1- IEs+ 0:00.16 (pppd) 381 d1- IE+ 0:00.05 /bin/sh /etc/ppp/ip-up ppp0 /dev/ttyd1 9600 205.179.24 ****************end of ps command output A kill -9 381 372 doesn't kill off these processes? Also, process id shows a /etc/ppp/ip-up command running, but there isn't a command by this name in the /etc/ppp directory? Is this normal? Man ip-up doesn't show anything. I'd like the process to just go away if there's a sudden disconnect. I can't imagine having to reboot to clear this up each time it happens the best approach. Other info that might be helpful: ****************output from ifconfig -a command****************** lp0: flags=810<POINTOPOINT,SIMPLEX> mtu 1500 lo0: flags=8009<UP,LOOPBACK,MULTICAST> mtu 16384 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 ppp0: flags=8050<POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1522 inet 205.179.24.1 --> 205.179.24.100 netmask 0xffffff00 ppp1: flags=8010<POINTOPOINT,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet 0.0.0.0 --> 0.0.0.0 netmask 0x0 sl0: flags=c010<POINTOPOINT,LINK2,MULTICAST> mtu 552 sl1: flags=c010<POINTOPOINT,LINK2,MULTICAST> mtu 552 tun0: flags=51<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING> mtu 1006 inet 205.179.24.1 --> 165.227.2.100 netmask 0xffffff00 tun1: flags=10<POINTOPOINT> mtu 1500 **************end of ifconfig -a ouyput************************** ****************output from netstat -nr command****************** Routing tables Internet: Destination Gateway Flags Refs Use Netif Expire default 165.227.2.100 UGSc 2 11 tun0 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 UH 1 14 lo0 165.227.2.100 205.179.24.1 UH 3 0 tun0 205.179.24.1 127.0.0.1 UGHS 0 0 lo0 205.179.24.100 205.179.24.1 UH 1 11 ppp0 ***************end of output from netstat -nr command*********** Thanks for any info in advance.
