Similar thing happens to me with a few differences: - I go into X first and then use the Red Hat dialer (which calls wvdial); - Connection dies randomly, and /var/log/messages has the same thing as blogan's, which is like that: Jul 5 00:05:58 localhost pppd[2024]: Hangup (SIGHUP) Jul 5 00:05:58 localhost pppd[2024]: Modem hangup Jul 5 00:05:58 localhost pppd[2024]: Connection terminated. Jul 5 00:05:58 localhost pppd[2024]: Connect time 4.0 minutes. Jul 5 00:05:58 localhost pppd[2024]: Sent 30852 bytes, received 597326 bytes. - And lastly, there are times when the connection stays active for a surprisingly long time. I haven't the faintest idea who sends this @#$%& SIGHUP to pppd. Any way of figuring that out? I just upgraded my kernel from the stock 2.4.2-2 to 2.4.5-ac12 and that fixed the problem of X killing pppd. I guess it was a bug in the kernel? Please verify this with a newer version of Red Hat Enterprise Linux or Fedora Core and reopen it against the new version if it still occurs. Closing as "not a bug" for now. |
