I won't reprint the exact ppp.conf's I've used here, as I don't think it would be helpful -- ppp.log shows the failure in pretty much the same place regardless of the differences in ppp.conf. ppp.log: [I'm having to transcribe this by hand -- my ethernet is dead while I get ADSL set up... :-)] ... tun0: Phase: PPP Started (background mode). ... tun0: Phase: bundle: Establish ... tun0: Phase: deflink: closed -> opening ... tun0: Phase: deflink: Connected! ... tun0: Phase: deflink: opening -> dial ... tun0: Phase: deflink: dial -> carrier ... tun0: Phase: deflink: Disconnected! ... tun0: Phase: deflink: carrier -> hangup ... tun0: Phase: deflink: [some connection stats] ... ... tun0: Phase: deflink: hangup -> opening and so on. It is not clear to me how far into the negotiation it is getting -- so I'm not even sure what the problem is that I'm trying to solve. Can anyone help me towards identifying the problem? I can post ppp.conf and the actual log transcripts if that would be helpful. I can also run it a few more times with higher logging levels if someone could suggest what options would provide helpful info with 'set log'. -- Paul. mailto:paulh@chariot.net.au mailto:paul.hoadley@student.adelaide.edu.au To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
