hi folks, i honestly knelt down and praised the lords of debian when i found that debian woody pppd and the isdncapi plugin just worked. getting an isdn connection to a provider via ppp was a no-configuration thing of two minutes. DEBIAN ROCKS! anyway, now i am trying to get diald to work with that setup. here are the relevant ppp files: /etc/ppp/peers/provider: sync noauth -chap user XXXXXXXXXX plugin userpass.so password XXXXXXXXXX plugin capiplugin.so defaultroute number XXXXXXXXXXX protocol hdlc /dev/null aston# grep "^[^#]" /etc/ppp/options asyncmap 0 auth lock hide-password lcp-echo-interval 30 lcp-echo-failure 4 noipx crtscts modem with these, i just `pon` and get a connection. now i set up diald. but when i give it an 'up' request, the logs report: diald[11789]: FIFO: link up request diald[11789]: new state CONNECT action 0x8051200 timeout 90 diald[11789]: Calling site 192.168.0.2 diald[11789]: failed to set modem to controlling tty: Inappropriate ioctl for device diald[11789]: Diald is dying with code 1 diald[11789]: Closing /dev/null "failed to set modem to controlling tty: Inappropriate ioctl for device" and it doesn't matter whether i leave 'crtscts', 'lock', and 'modem' out of the ppp options file, and 'defaultroute' out of the provider file, i just keep getting this error. so i tried setting 'mode dev' in diald.defaults and then specifying pon/poff as connect/disconnect scripts. here's what that gives (yes, these are random PIDs) diald[30857]: FIFO: link up request diald[30857]: Calling site 192.168.0.2 pppd[6998]: Plugin userpass.so loaded. pppd[6998]: userpass: $Revision: 1.3 $ pppd[6998]: Plugin capiplugin.so loaded. pppd[6998]: capiplugin: $Revision: 1.22 $ pppd[6998]: capiconn: 1.5 diald[30857]: connector: Plugin userpass.so loaded. diald[30857]: connector: userpass: $Revision: 1.3 $ diald[30857]: connector: Plugin capiplugin.so loaded. diald[30857]: connector: capiplugin: $Revision: 1.22 $ diald[30857]: connector: capiconn: 1.5 diald[30857]: Connected to site 192.168.0.2 diald[30857]: Open device /dev/null kernel: kcapi: appl 1 up pppd[17687]: pppd 2.4.1 started by root, uid 0 pppd[17687]: capiplugin: phase serialconn. pppd[17687]: capiplugin: dialing XXXXXXXXXXXX (hdlc) ** --> diald[30857]: Disconnected.
