Bauman) Newsgroups: comp.unix.bsd.bsdi.misc Subject: PPP dialin (multiple IPS) Date: 20 Jun 1996 23:29:54 GMT Organization: InterGlobal Communications Lines: 35 Message-ID: <4qcmti$3mn@moon.igcom.net> NNTP-Posting-Host: terra.igcom.net X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2 PL2] Greetings- I have posted this question a couple of times, without any help. Of course this is a newsgroup and I cant expect any help, but I will post again. I have also asked BSDI tech support, but they "refuse" to give me any real help.(even though I pay for support). I have a server in which I have dial-in PPP users. I have 1 user that wishes to dial-in and make use of multiple IP (on a different subnet of course). The bsd/os PPP machine is 206.98.12.66 netmask 255.255.255.192 gateway 206.98.12.65. I have a free subnet of 206.103.210.0. So if I wanted to allocate that whole class c net to the dialin user, I of course need to do a few things with the bsd/os ppp server. My first impression is to add the net to the routing table. > route add -net 206.103.210.0 206.103.210.1 This would add the network of 206.103.210.0 and the gateway would be 206.103.210.1 which would also be the IP address of the ppp dialin client. I dont believe a arp entry is required in this case, and if it is, it will not work (cannot intuit interface index and type for 206.103.210.1) My /etc/ppp.sys says: > Puser:di:if inet=206.98.12.66 206.103.210.1 netmask 255.255.255.0:in#100 I cannot get a ping out of the dialin user when the client side logs in. Anyone have some ideas they can throw my way? Help appreciated, DB
