[newbie] qnxrtp and dialup connection problem

Hi folks,
Im having some troubles with the dialup connection: in few words the
pppd daemon exits just after 3 or 4 seconds it connects with the ISP
(SIGHUP). /var/log/syslog doesn’t says much… just that pppd got
connected and that it exited, nothing else, no negotiation at all. I
noticed that there isn’t a directory /etc/ppp with the pap-secret file
in, but after I created both the directory and the file (with 600
permission) nothing good happened… Is there anyone that can help me?

I’m using an external ISDN modem.

Regards,

He is talking about QNX RtP here (see header), not QNX4!

Sock(l)et is for QNX4.

Try running ‘pppd debug …’ to increase the syslog output. Maybe it
will show something more…

Hm, IDSN modem.

If you are using dialer, goto Edit->Log->Enable Log, that should give you
more information.

And if you using dialer, you don’t need /etc/ppp/pap-secret. You put those
in user/password, and make sure the “Login Type” is “Automic (PAP/CHAP)”.

Indeed… I got confused reading that answer > :slight_smile: > I knew that Sock(l)et is

for qnx4 and that qnxrtp uses io-net :slight_smile:

Well, anyway, io-net is alive, though :slight_smile: and it runs with the properly
options (-pppsomething…)
So, what’s the problem? I want to get rid of linux but I can’t until I
can use the net :slight_smile:
