Lines: 24 Message-ID: <4i97a4$dlg@saturn.vision.net.au> NNTP-Posting-Host: hobart.southcom.com.au X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2 PL2] I have a problem getting an Amiga using AmiTCP/IP, using the PPP 1.44 SanaII networking driver connected to SLiRP PPP running under BSDI UNIX.. I just get PPP timeouts, however the SLiRP connects fine to a MAC or PC or even another UNIX machine (such as a Linux setup). The Amiga PPP will connect to other PPP Internet Service Providers, no problem at all - is there something that exists on the BSD setup that is causing problems? - could it be something setup in the ppp.sys file on the BSD machine - BSD Unix is running on a Pentium 133 with 16Meg RAM and 4Gb of HDD space, 28800 dialups running off 2x16port Digiboard system (if this helps in any way) Basically im trying to get an Amiga Internet package running for a Local service provider - and not having much luck getting it to talk to each other, this problem however doesnt exist on other service providers (of which I have tried 5 different ones) If anyone has any suggestions to my situation, could you email them to me at: jim@southcom.com.au Thankyou in advance.
