Hello netters, I'm having trouble with running PPP between 2 SCO systems. The "caller" machine is SCO ODT 2.0, the "callee" machine is SCO UNIX SysV4.2.2 with TCP/IP 1.2.1. When I cu into the callee machine and log in as nppp, I get the normal "last login...." messages but then I get a bunch of garbage characters. The usr/adm/syslog file shows: Callee machine ( when logging in manually as nppp) Incomming call on /dev/tty1a, pid =XXX, name nppp Connecting /dev/tty1a under PPP ppp_rm_conn sending pid XXX SIGHUP sig_hup sig = 1 Incomming call on /dev/console disconnected Nothing prints in the caller machine's syslog (makes sense to me as I'm just loggin in manually) If I try to ping the callee machine the caller machine's syslog shows: Dialing host xxxx uucp system xxxx Dial failure host xxxx using uucp system xxxx = -6 The callee syslog shows no activity. Any pointers? (FWIW when i was using SLIP, all the TCP/IP commands worked fine. :-( ) Steve
