After all the help I have received I have managed to get my ISDN connection up with proper authentication, etc. However, I cannot do anything with it - using kISDN under X I can see the IP addresses, that packets are being transmitted/received, but there is no response from Netscape, if I try to ping or telnet another server, etc. Is this a routing problem?
seems to me to be one
Below is the output of /var/log/messages and /etc/route.conf. In the latter case I assume YaST configured the routing; I have tried different addresses for ippp0 including one out of range on my local net, without success. 1.1.1.1 was a frustrated last resort.
local (non used) addresses and 1.1.1.1 are ok, they are changed into real ones when connecting.
Also, I notice that when conected to the ISP the remote IP is always the same - shouls I use this as the Point-to-point partner, or doesn't this matter in YaST's setup?
it doesnt matter if you do, but if you do be carefull: all packets which are not addressed to your localnet will be transmitted to the globalnet -> i4l will call your provider
# ISDN (i4l) # 192.168.0.1 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 ippp0 # default 192.168.0.1 192.168.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 eth0 1.1.1.1 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 ippp0
what is the output of "route -n" while an established connection? -Kevin
