Solstice PPP 3.0.1 Administration Guide

Problems Configuring Solstice PPP

When Solstice PPP is started, it reads the configuration files that you created using the configuration script pppinit. If these files do not exist, Solstice PPP displays the following message:


starting ppp (not configured)

The following log file extract shows the log messages that are generated when one of the configuration files contains an error:


11/13/95 18:53:22 - Link manager (460) has started 11/13/95
11/13/95 18:53:22 - parse_config_file: unrecognized symbol
nactivity_timeout
11/13/95 18:53:22 - parse_config_file: unrecognized symbol 180
11/13/95 18:53:22 parse_config_file: Errors in configuration file
/etc/opt/SUNWconn/ppp/ppp.conf

In this example, there is an unrecognised keyword contained in the file ppp.conf, which is rejected when the file is parsed. Check the configuration files for typographical errors and illegal values assigned to keywords. Restart Solstice PPP to read the configuration.
