I have a 7.1 virgin install that was doing the same thing. The problem was that the persist option was not being passed to the pppd command line. I modified the PPPOPTIONS entry and added the persist to this to make it work - not the right way, but I will look into that later tonight. Hmmm.... So if I use ppp-watch I shouldn't need the persist option for pppd. - Anyway my previous solution still works. On my 7.1 install: ps axww | grep ppp-watch returns a COMMAND of /sbin/ppp-watch ppp0 iffcg-ppp0 boot ps axww | grep ppp-watch returns a COMMAND of /usr/sbin/pppd -detach lock modem crtscts asyncmap 00000000 defaultroute usepeerdns user ____ remotename ppp0 /dev/ttyS0 115200 ipparam ppp0 linkname ppp0 call ppp0 noauth passive persist I have added passive and persist using the PPPOPTIONS variable. On my 7.0 install: ps axww | grep ppp-watch returns a COMMAND of /sbin/ppp-watch ppp0 boot ps axww | grep ppp-watch returns a COMMAND of /usr/sbin/pppd lock modem crtscts asyncmap 00000000 defaultroute usepeerdns user ____ remotename ppp0 debug nodetach /dev/ttyS0 115200 ipparam ppp0 linkname ppp0 noauth passive connect /usr/sbin/chat -v -f /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/chat-ppp0 This install still has debug turned on, and passive was added using the PPPOPTIONS var again. Hope this helps someone figure it out. I'll keep you posted on what I find. This problem might be a duplicate of ppp-watch bug #39231, please check the fix provided there and tell if anything changes or not. Added persist in PPPOPTIONS in ifcfg-ppp0 and it now redials after disconnect/hangup. Thanks to ak on this. initscripts*88 isnt out yet in rawhide but .86 didnt fix this problem. .88 should fix this, afaik. |
