AutoPPP misery

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

About a month ago i had posted a thread about when a who or w
command is issued on a redhat 5.2 box AutoPPP users fail to show up as
being logged in. I left an incident with redhat but still haven't
heard back anything. So I updated to 6.0 to see if it would resolve
the problem. It didn't. I want to go over my configurations one last time
to make sure it's not me.

int the login.config file the autoppp line reads:

/AutoPPP/ -     - /usr/sbin/pppd login

the /etc/ppp/options file:

asyncmap 0
crtscts
lock
modem
netmask 255.255.255.0
proxyarp
ms-dns 209.31.54.4
ms-dns 209.31.54.5

and /etc/ppp/options.ttyXX:

209.31.54.5:209.31.54.36

And finally heres a little sample of the logs:

07/30 11:19:23 yC4    login: use login config file 
/etc/mgetty+sendfax/login.config
07/30 11:19:23 yC4   match: user='/AutoPPP/', key=''
