Hello. I have a very important problem...

I'm trying to set up the AIX 4.3.3 PPP server for plain phone access:

- I've installed bos.net.ppp

- I've created a TTY, tty0 with baud=38400, login=enable, erased all echos, terminal=dumb, flowcontrol=rts

- I've set up the link control configuration with smit addlcp. AIX is server, then I put subsystem_name=pppserver, max_servers_conn=1, max_demand_conn=0, max_ip_interf=1, max_async_hdlc=1, force_auth=no

- I've set up the PPP net interfaces with smit addpppserver, local_ip_address=192.168.1.1, starting_remote_ip_address=192.168.1.2, number_of_addresses=1

-I created a pppuser with .profile= exec /usr/sbin/pppattachd server 2> /dev/null

- I started the PPP server with startsrc -s pppcontrold

- I've checked with netstat -in and pp0 has 192.168.1.1

The user dials, the modem answer, connects and after half a minute WinDos cut the connection giving an error about 'bad server response'... what's that?

What I'm not doing? [sig][/sig]
