A new version?
by Mike Mestnik - Nov 8th 2007 19:34:26
The [1]changelog Reports that in ppp-2.4.4!? "* Lots of bugs fixed,
particularly in the area of demand-dialled and persistent
connections."
I think this is worth a look, perhaps it's time to release this
code...
The [2]main page reports "The latest version of ppp is version 2.4.3,
released on 14 November 2004."
Looking at Debian Stable, 2.4.4rel-8. So now even FM has current
information.

Project abandoned?
by bernie - Mar 23rd 2007 06:10:07
pppd appears to have been unmaintained for 2 years already.
Is anybody willing to step forward and adopt this codebase?

pppd 3.4.3 with rp-pppoe and demand fails to reconnect
by Ulrich Holeschak - Dec 6th 2004 16:12:42
Hallo,
after using pppd 2.4.2 for a while with rp-pppoe.so (DSL) in demand mode i
have now upgraded to pppd 2.4.3. At first the connect works well, but after
the automatic 24 hours disconnect by Deutsche Telekom the reconnect failes.
The reconnect not only fails sometimes but definitely every time the
disconnect occurs. Here is what i see in the syslog during the
dis/reconnect:

--------------------------------
with "plugin rp-pppoe.so" set in the global options file.
This seems to be a new bug in pppd 2.4.3, since it works well with pppd
2.4.2 ...

Re: pppd 3.4.3 with rp-pppoe and demand fails to reconnect
by linlin - May 26th 2005 14:48:48
Same with me, same log characteristics:
retry in the same second of termination, but immediate modem hangup.
After downgrading from 2.4.3 of Suse9.3 to
2.4.2 of Suse9.2 it works like I was used to before,
i.e. on demand reconnect works.

The RADIUS plugin has been broken by chap-new.c
by John Zavgren - Nov 12th 2003 10:34:33
Greetings:
I have been trying to use pppd-2.4.2b3 with RADIUS authentication.
The chap-new.c code and the ./plugins/radius/radius.c code are
incompatible because the chap authentication hook names are no longer
compatible with the hook names in the radius plugin.
Even though pppd announces via the syslog that it loads the radius.so
plugin, RADIUS authentication doesn't occur because the name of the chap
authentication hook in chap.c is chap_verify_hook:
if (chap_verify_hook)
verifier = chap_verify_hook;
else
verifier = chap_verify_response;
ok = (*verifier)(name, ss->name, id,
ss->digest,
ss->challenge + PPP_HDRLEN
+
CHAP_HDRLEN,
response, message,
sizeof(message));
But, the "hooks" that are defined in the radius plugin
are:
pap_check_hook = radius_secret_check;
pap_auth_hook = radius_pap_auth;
chap_check_hook = radius_secret_check;
chap_auth_hook = radius_chap_auth;
ip_choose_hook = radius_choose_ip;
allowed_address_hook = radius_allowed_address;
CHAP authentication still functions, but it is based entirely on secrets
in the /etc/ppp/chap-secrets file, because RADIUS procedures are never
invoked.
Has anyone fixed this?
I need a version of pppd that simultaneously supports kernel-mode pppoe
and RADIUS authentication. (And, preferrably MPPE and the various flavors
of Microsoft CHAP.)
Thanks!

Can't you use the included BSD or Deflate compression? Besides I'd much
prefer the inclusion of a standard like RFC2509 - IP Header Compression
over PPP for TCP/UDP/RTP http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2509.html

Dial-on-demand and hanging up
by Claas - Apr 16th 2001 04:43:09
Hi, I am using dial on demand with the pppoe-4. I
hang up after 10 minutes of idle. Is it possible
to run a script before hanging up? (Ip-down
is run after hanging up.) It shall be a
script to prepare to go offline. It would set my
dhs.org dynamic IP to offline/disabled.
Please mail me an answer (if you know one.)

Additionally, this is also supported within pppd through putting the
'demand' in /etc/ppp/options or the appropriate file for your connection
and then, of course, you could utilise wvdial in chat mode. See the man
page for more info.
