Solstice PPP 3.0.1 User's Guide

Problems Configuring Solstice PPP

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


starting ppp (not configured)

The following log file extract shows the error 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
inactivity_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 unrecognized keyword contained in the file ppp.conf, which is rejected when the file is parsed. If you have a problem in one of your configuration files, run the configuration script pppinit to regenerate it. Contact your system administrator or Internet provider for help, if this does not solve your problem.
