Since june 97 the german Telecom finally offers access to the internet directly via PPP.
This statement is valid both for PPP connections with a modem and for syncPPP via ISDN. Please see the separate description below.
The following is valid for both procedures :
#
must be appended behind
it. Apparently alias names don't work.
Example : 01234567890123456789012#0001
nameserver : 194.25.2.129
061511191011
instead of 0191011
(Change this in /etc/ppp/ppp.chat.to
or
/etc/rc.config
).
Install the package toppp
. The necessary files can be found
afterwards in the directory /usr/doc/packages/toppp
.
Copy the files to /etc/ppp
:
mkdir -p /etc/ppp cd /etc/ppp cp /usr/doc/packages/toppp/* .If you already have adapted files for PPP there then be careful not to overwrite important files.
The necessary configuration files can be found at http://www.suse.de/Support/sdb_e/toppp_files.html.
Create the files manually in the directory /etc/ppp
and make sure
they have the correct permissions :
cd /etc/ppp chmod +x ppp-up ppp-down chmod 600 pap-secrets
/etc/ppp
:
ppp.chat.to
:
Store your user name in the variable USER
. If you fail to establish
a connection, remove the comment signs for the debugging. Please note that your
password might appear in /var/log/messages
then.
pap-secrets
:
Enter the user-name and the password. Note the double apostrophes ("
)
around the user-name.
This file should only be readable by Root :
chmod 600 /etc/ppp/pap-secrets
Start the connection with /etc/ppp/ppp-up
.
Stop it with /etc/ppp/ppp-down
.
If something doesn't work, activate the debug-option in ppp-up
.
Monitor the output on the screen and the messages in /var/log/messages
.
Check with ifconfig
and route
whether the
IP connection was configured correctly.
/etc/ppp/ppp.chat.to
.
Jan G. Loeschner (jan.loeschner@blomberg.de) uses the following
Init sequence for a ELSA ISDN/TL V.34
:
AT &F \N10 DI 0191011Here the sequence
\N10
for HDLC transparent is important.
Starting with S.u.S.E.-Linux 5.0 you can configure this directly in YaST !
You have to adapt the telephone numbers that should be called, the user name and the password as is described above.
If you create the pap-secrets
manually, please note that the username
must be enclosed in double apostrophes ("
) . See above for an example.
Thank you all ! (I hope that I forgot noone !)
