Please respond with e-mail as I can no loger establish a working PPP session with my personal IAP.

Thanks

Ron [.....] With the 12-17-97 current, PPP seems broken. I can no longer DHCP to my IAP. Did something change in the setup that I need to know about. What is the "File exists" error shown below?

Thanks

Ron

I'll bet you're doing an ``add 0 0 HISADDR'' in both ppp.conf and ppp.linkup, but not doing a ``delete 0'' in ppp.linkup prior to the add. The second add is simply failing because a default route already exists.

If your IP is static, you don't need the delete or add in ppp.linkup. If it's dynamic, you do need the ``delete 0'' (or ``delete default'' with the latest versions) as well as the ``add 0 0 hisaddr'' (or ``add default hisaddr'' with the latest versions) in ppp.linkup.

If this isn't the answer, please add command logging at the start of your default section and post the relevent bits of the log.

Thanks.
