Question re:Debian and ppp...
I have Debian 1.3 (from the Boot magazine cd) installed on my amd 586,
and most things are working well...got XFree86 running, starting to
learn my way around but still doing a lot of thrashing, and have rtfm'd
til the wee hours.
I'm trying to get a ppp connection to my ISP going and have run into
some problems.
I think I've got all my ppp files setup up correctly, using "pon" and
"poff", modem's dialing out, everything looks good until;
(When I do a tail -f /var/log/messages, this is what I see...)
(I didn't include all the prior chat...the dialout script seems to be
ok...)

Jan 9 14:38:04 ariel pppd [291]: Exit
Any suggestions here? When it appears the ppp link is up (like when it
says Connect: ppp1, I try starting lynx, I get "cannot access startfile
http://www.oro.net"; (my ISP) When I try ping, I get "network is
unreachable"... Can anybody tell from this log if I've actually made a
ppp connection? (Sorry if this is a _really_ stupid question...I'm real
new at this!) The tech support guy at my ISP said I didn't need to do
anything special to start ppp...but he did tell me I needed to do this
from Xwindows...He's a umsdos linux'r. Oh yeah, and they're not using
PAP. Oronet is using Debian linux for their server, btw!
Also, I'm not on a network, I'm just a standalone box dialing into my
ISP. Should my machine name be the same as my ISP username? or does it
make a difference?
Any help greatly appreciated!!
