Recompiling kernel broke my ppp
Title says most of it.
I have had this problem before, and now I can't figure out how to fix it, nor can I find the previous reference in the mailing list archives.
So here it is: I have been running 2.0.6 kernel for some time now with no problems. I was experimenting around with trying to get my SB16 audio card and my AHA1542 to work at the same time (wanted to hear Biff bark <g>) but had no luck.
So I moved my original kernel back to /vmlinuz, but now ppp doesn't work. I can start my chat script, the modem dials, I get connected. I see the remote IP in the routing tables. I see the IP I have been dynamically assigned. I can ping myself (ppp0), but if I ping the remote IP, I see the xmit light on the modem blink, but there is no answer from the remote site.
I am using kerneld, so pppd goes away if I let the modem disconnect.
Tried recompiling from the 2.0.6 kernel-source with and without kernel ppp support.
Did the make modules and modules_install. I am stumped. What should I try to get this fixed? I am sure it is simple but it escapes me.
Thanks!
