pppd troubles
hey all,
we are still failing to establish a connection with wvdial and pppd
(on a potato system). wvdial looks all good, until we get to the
login:
--> Carrier detected. Waiting for prompt.
login:
--> Looks like a login prompt.
--> Sending: heikkin
heikkin
Password:
--> Looks like a password prompt.
--> Sending: (password)
Entering PPP mode.
Async interface address is unnumbered (Ethernet0)
Your IP address is 216.114.40.29. MTU is 1500 bytes
--> Looks like a welcome message.
--> Starting pppd at Tue Jun 19 16:56:35 2001
--> PPP daemon has died! (exit code = 1)
--> Disconnecting at Tue Jun 19 16:56:35 2001
plog reports the following:
Jun 19 16:56:35 orange pppd[1408]: pppd 2.3.11 started by root, uid 0
Jun 19 16:56:35 orange pppd[1408]: Couldn't attach tty to PPP unit 0:
Invalid argument
Jun 19 16:56:35 orange pppd[1408]: tcsetattr: Invalid argument
Jun 19 16:56:35 orange pppd[1408]: Exit.
i can't find anything about this online, so i am turing to you. any
clues why this machine cannot establish a connection with any ISP? we
tried three so far, same results everywhere. and pon/poff doesn't do
any better.

we'd tell you where, but then
we'd have to delete you.
