pppd dial-in problems
I'm trying to configure a 2.2r5 system for dial-in PPP access.
The dail-in part works fine, but when the dial-in user starts
pppd using "exec /usr/sbin/pppd -detach", the ppp daemon just
sits there forever: deaf and dumb until it's killed.
Starting pppd from a ssh session works fine: pppd sends out LCP
packets (logging them to /var/log/debug) and times out after a
while since it gets no LCP reply packets.
Starting pppd from a dial-in port does nothing. pppd prints
nothing in the debug log, and the messages log looks like
Apr 9 09:44:18 debain pppd[246]: pppd 2.3.11 started by root, uid 0
Apr 9 09:44:49 debain pppd[246]: Terminating on signal 15.
Apr 9 09:44:49 debain pppd[246]: Exit.
[I have to kill pppd from another session]
I've tried dozens of combinations of options in
/etc/ppp/options (starting with the values from the PPP HOWTO).
I'm baffled...
