Before running pppinit, edit the file /etc/hosts to enter the source and destination addresses used for synchronous PPP links.
For example:
127.0.0.1 localhost 129.xxx.xxx.32 epic loghost 129.xxx.xxx.117 epic-ppp 129.xxx.xxx.119 odyssey-ppp 129.xxx.xxx.01 olympus-ppp |
This step is necessary because Solstice PPP is started before the naming service (NIS/NIS+) when the machine is rebooted, so it reads the host information from the local files.
If you configure your machine to accept incoming asynchronous connections, you also need to create user accounts for each remote host. See "Adding User Accounts for Incoming Connections" for detailed instructions.
