I seem to missing something basic with kernel ppp. I set up my /etc/ppp/options file: # options file for PPPD defaultroute crtscts modem deflate 12,12 user cwaiken lock I set up my /etc/ppp/chat script: # Abort the chat script is modem replies # BUSY or NO CARRIER ABORT BUSY ABORT 'NO CARRIER' # Wait up to 5 seconds for a reply to each of these TIMEOUT 5 '' ATZ OK ATM0 OK ATDTxxxxxxxxxx # Wait 40 seconds for connection TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT TIMEOUT 5 I set up /etc/ppp/pap-secrets. I then run: pppd /dev/cuaa1 115200 connect chat -f /etc/ppp/chat user cwaiken I do indeed get connected. When I'm finished I do a: kill -9 `cat /var/run/ppp0.pid` to finish my connection. The problem is the second, and subsequent times, that I run: pppd /dev/cuaa1 115200 connect chat -f /etc/ppp/chat user cwaiken I get this error: pppd[520]: Couldn't add default route: File exists I also get that same error if I try using user ppp. and I can't do anything. I can't ping any sites, fetchmail doesn't run, etc. The only way I could figure out how to get this going again was to re-boot my system. What am I doing wrong? What am I missing? -- Christopher W.
