Strange PPP server problem
Dear Fellow Debianites,
Thanks in advance for any help with this strange problem I am having. I
am trying to set up a PPP server at work. It is a Debian machine
running hamm with ppp version 2.3.5-2. Same setup at my home-machine as
well. I am setting this up in the server with mgetty and AutoPPP.
The relevant line I use is
/AutoPPP/ - a_ppp /usr/sbin/pppd auth -chap +pap login
withing mgetty's login.config.
Autoppp works and I get a succesful PAP login. After that though, the
home-client machine is not being given the IP address specified in
/etc/ppp/options.ttyS0 of the server. At home, I used pppconfig to setup
the connection script. Note that the home PPP setup and pppconfig
scripts work for the official campus PPP connection that uses PAP. So I
suspect that the problem is not in my home machine. I am able to use
minicom and get connected to the debian work server. But since the home
client is not able to get its local IP address from the server, the ppp
connection fails.
I am enclosing relevant segments of syslog and my options files below
for both the client and server. For security purposes, usernames,
passwords, client and server names have been edited and made generic. I
would appreciate any help in this regard. I apologize for the length of
this message.
Gopal.
