ppp Description

Point-to-Point Protocol implementation under Linux and Solaris systems ppp (Paul's PPP Package) is an open source package which implements the Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) on Linux and Solaris systems.ppp is an implementation of (PPP) Point-to-Point Protocol for Unix systems.Dialling out to an ISPI use this command to get pppd to dial my ISP from my Linux box at home: pppd call apexI have set up a file /etc/ppp/peers/apex containing this: ttyS0 38400 crtscts connect '/usr/sbin/chat -v -f /etc/ppp/chat/apex' defaultroute user paulus remotename apexThe chat script /etc/ppp/chat/apex looks like this: ABORT "NO CARRIER" ABORT "NO DIALTONE" ABORT "ERROR" ABORT "NO ANSWER" ABORT "BUSY" TIMEOUT 90 REPORT CARRIER "" at OK "atw1&d0&c1" OK atdt62485791 "~"Note the "~" as the last expect string. This isn't strictly necessary but it does mean that the chat script doesn't finish until I actually see a ppp frame from the ISP.My ISP uses PAP authentication rather than a login dialog, which simplifies the chat script. I have this in my /etc/ppp/pap-secrets file: # Secrets for authentication using PAP # client server secret IP addresses paulus apex "notmypassword"
