Unfortunately, I am not in front of my box currently so I cannot make this as precise as I want to. Here is the scenerio: Boot the machine Login Start PPP Connection Established Done with PPP session and disconnect NOW, when I attempt to start another ppp session after a good session has been disconnected wierd things start to happen. After the connection is established, I do a show ipcp in ppp and everything looks fine. Now I try to ping a host located on the remote network. I now check my ppp screen and BEHOLD a message from rtinit has arrived. The message is something like: rtinit: File Exists blah...blah...blah... (Sorry, it was late last night when it happened and I wasn't paying REAL close attention) Hopefully someone somewhere has seen this problem before and is able and willing to help. Thank you all in advance. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ John Crosswhite : E-Mail: crosswjo@cv.hp.com System Administrator : Office: 541-715-4170 Hewlett Packard : Corvallis, OR : ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
