PPPD+MGETTY Question

• Messages sorted by:[ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ]

Hi.. I have a question reguarding PPP server on FreeBSD2.2.8. For some
reason *sometimes* the modem auto disconnects/sighup for no apparent reason
after it receives a call and answers with ATA. Here is the log messages:

02/20 23:13:13 c02    CND: CONNECT 38400
02/20 23:13:13 c02    CND: found: 38400[0a] ** found **
02/20 23:13:13 c02   waiting for line to clear (VTIME), read:
02/20 23:13:13 c02   utmp + wtmp entry made
02/20 23:13:13 c02   tio_set_flow_control( HARD )
02/20 23:13:13 c02   print welcome banner (/etc/issue)
02/20 23:13:13 c02   getlogname (AUTO_PPP), read:
02/20 23:13:23 ##### failed dev=ttyc02, pid=11944, got signal 1, exiting

I am thinking that the server is not receiving any data from the client end
thats why the "getlogname (AUTO_PPP), read:" line is empty. I have no idea
why tho. Yes one might think that this is bcuz someone was calling the
dialin with a phone instead of a modem.. but this is not the case.

Just to let u konw I am using release 1.1.19-Nov24 of mgetty and pppd 2.3.5.
Thanks for any help.
