Hi everybody,
I have linux-1.3.83 kernel, an ethernet board and a modem. With the
ethernet I am connected to a local network and everything works fine with
that. With the modem I establish a dial-up connection to one of my internet
service providers. My aim is to use my computer as a gateway to our LAN.
I have compiled my linux kernel with "IP: forwarding/gatewaying" option
enabled, included slip and ppp support.
One of my service providers offer only slip support and the other offers
both slip and ppp. I have no problem in connection with Windows 95 in
any. But for the linux case...
for slip: I establish connection succesfully with one of my service
providers, do whatever I like in internet, however cannot be a gateway.
The results of "ifconfig" and "netstat -rn" commands are given at the
bottom. For the second service provider, it does not give me the remote
ip number, so I give $remote my own ip, when I ping the hosts in
internet, everything is OK, but when I say telnet, it says connected but
cannot give me the login prompt.
for ppp: When I write pppd I receive "Sorry - PPP is not available on this
system" message :-( I have read NET-2-HOWTO and tried to use chat as it
says, "chat -v '' ATZ OK ATXDT9,2104300 CONNECT '' ogin: XXX word: XXX"
and it does nothing. When I use dip to make the connection and write
"mode PPP" everything seems different. Modem works, but I cannot do
anything! I write pppd again but :-(
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
