Date: Sat, 02 Nov 1996 17:49:05 -0500 Organization: PAN & YANG Lines: 14 Message-ID: <327BCFE1.3183@fast.net> Reply-To: jyang@fast.net NNTP-Posting-Host: ppp-abe-440.fast.net Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Mailer: Mozilla 3.0 (Win95; I) Here is the problems: When I start my ppp(free BSD2.1.5) try to connect to my Local internet provider,I get "dial OK", "Login OK", when I use " > show ipcp", I can see his site IP and my site IP which were assigned dynamically.But I have a problem to ping others after that. I try to add a line "add default netmask HISADDR" in ppp.linkup file, but it didn't work, So I use ppp comand in ppp prompt: > add default netmask HISADDR so it works !!, I want to know why and how can I make this default route added automatically.
