Can't access internet
I have changed locations from Florence, OR, where I was able to access an ISP via Linux to Port Orford, OR, where I can't.
Here's the problem: 1.) I have configured wvdial with the phone # of my Port Orford ISP. And placed the ISP's DNS (12.45.56.2) in a configuration file (can't recall name of file - think it is /etc/resolv.conf) 2.) I have brought up a terminal window and typed "wvdial Harborside" 3.) I see in my screen: Connect at 50,666/ARQ/V90/LAPM/V42BIS Carrier detected Port Orford dial 1 Login: Looks like a login prompt Sending rdaves@harborside.com Password Looks like a password prompt po-dial1% Hmm...a prompt, sending "ppp" ppp Requested service not authorized Don't know what to do. Starting pppd and hoping for the best Starting PPPD PPP Daemon has died (exit code=10) Disconnecting 4.) /var/log/messages says: pppd 2.4.0 started by root, uid 0 using interface ppp0 Connect: ppp0 , <--> /dev/ttyS2 LCP: timeout sending Config-Requests Connection terminated Receive serial link is not 8-bitclean Problem: all had bit 7 set to 0 Exit |
Different ISP and same username???

That was a typo. I corrected it.
I am able to dial the new ISP and listen to all the beeps and so forth while they shake hands. But I never get totally connected. I called their help folks, and they do not support Unix. The last ISP that I had did support Unix, and it was fairly easy to get connected. Upon surfing around, I find many, many references to the same problem, however, there are so many, that I am unable to determine which problem belongs to me. I am sure it has something to do with the new ISP equipment or protocol, but without help from them, I am unable to determine anything. :confused: |
Tried something else
I created /usr/sbin/ppp-on and /etc/ppp/ppp-on-dialer
then typed /usr/sbin/ppp-on & And got this # /usr/sbin/ppp-on & [1] 2346 # Serial connection established using channel 2 Using interface ppp0 Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/ttyS2 sent [LCP ConfReq id=0x1 <asyncmap 0x20a0000> <magic 0xb32e3070> <pcomp> accomp>] this message was repeated 9-times, 10 times, total LCP: timeout sending Config-Requests Connection Terminated Receive serial link is not 8-bit clean: Problem: all had bit 7 set to 0 Same results as before. It appears there is a problem sending Config Requests. Any suggestions? |
Found an answer
I finally found an answer.
Usint rp-3 I went into 'advanced' and unchecked the box which says "let PPP perform authentication" Apparently, this turned off the signals being sent by ppp and not recognized. |
That's a problem/resolution worth noting.
