FW: broken lan
I forgot to mention in my previous email, that when executing pon, the script in /etc/chatscripts/provider runs, but /var/log/ppp.log shows that ppp fails with the message "peer failed to authenticate."
I apparently have two different programs trying to connect to my ISP. One at system boot which looks for /etc/ppp.chatscript and can't find it because it isn't there, and one which uses /etc/chatscripts/provider.
Thanks again for any help.

Subject: broken lan
Hello All,
Last night I upgraded a number of packages on my Hamm system. While resolving dependencies, I believe I downloaded and installed dip. I don't think it was previously installed. As a result, I can no longer connect to my ISP. Also, my lan is now broken - I can't ping my other machine. When the system boots, I get a message about netmask not making sense for my system - it scrolls by too fast for me to catch it all.
My file chatscript file is missing now, and the ppp.log file shows complaints about that when sendmail tries to dial out at boot up. Can anyone tell me what I should do? Do I need to remove dip and reinstall ppp? Are they compatible? My ppp package is version 2.3.3-4. Dip is 3.3.7p-1. I don't know which package caused me to download this one.
Thanks for any help.
