This is probably a known bug, but I wanted to know if there are any workarounds for it:
Firstly, ps aux returns floating point exceptions when I try to run it, everytime, Secondly, ppp doesn't seem to work.
I have pppd version 2.1 patch 2 (Linux 1.0.1).
What happens is I initiate a ppp seesion with DIP and after it's connected (I use dip -t and then the term command to be sure it's connected) and the ppp stream begins to flow I put in the mode PPP statement, at which time, nothing happens. This used to work with 1.3.20 (in fact I"m on that kernel again, now) and I can't get a ps aux to work to check on the status of ppp. However I get the message 'network unreachable' when I ping my ppp host. This says to me that PPP is not connecting/latching. Do I need an updated version of pppd? And what about ps aux? Is there something I should kow and just don't?
I understand and recognize that the 1.3.xx kernels aren't stable, just curious if anyone's found/sovled these problems yet.
Please e-mail reponses, if possible. Thanks, -Steve mailto:smw@net-gate.com http://net-gate.com/~smw
