Hello,

I have problem with ppp interface. I use ppp interface as gateway for
taking IP packet. I used QNX 6.1.0A and sources codes of pppd
(http://cvs.qnx.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/services/pppd/). Now I use QNX 6.2
and this ppp interface not run. Problem is in function “establish_ppp(fd)”
in file (sys-nto.c).
Command “devctl(ppp_fd, PPPIOATTACH, pattach, pattach->len, NULL)”
not start ppp interface. I do not kwon why?

Thank you.

Because the devctl() is changed.

Any reason you can’t use the pppd shipped with 6.2 ?
If you have to, then you either have to wait till pppd source
updated on public cvs server (I don’t even know if this WILL
happen) or require the source through you sales rep.

Hello

I need interface for take and put IP packets in to system. Src pppd on
6.1.0A was very good for this problem. When this pppd not work on 6.2 then
I haven’t interface for it. I don’t know another method.

Thank you.
