aioshin Posted November 16, 2005 Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 (edited) does anyone encountered this error... google shows several error similar to this, but I still unable to fix it... here's the scenario.... I have LE2005 act as a dial-in server.. with a usr 56k data/fax external, right now I'm using win2k, coz I can't connect using my mdk10.1 at home, when at linux, trying to connect using kppp, dialing on my LE2005 at the office, im sure it'l accept the credentials I used since its the same username and pasword that I used when logging from win2k, the kppp dialog box shows loggin on to network but several seconds later or maybe a minute, it will disconnect, with error "ppp timeout". Checking the var-log-messages, it shown that time it discon, signal 15... terminating. I already google about this error and also tried those suggested fix but still got the same error.. OK, when logging via terminal, I can successfully login, I can even do remote admin on that LE2005 box, but how come I cannot connect on regular kppp session?

scarecrow Posted November 16, 2005 Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 I had this problem with an external, but highly unconventional ISDN modem/router which is very common here (Greece)- namely Intracom Netmod. being an external serial/USB modem it has no chances to refuse working under Linux, but setting it properly is everything but trivial! The solution was altering the ppp timeout settings- in my case setting them to some 12 seconds was enough, in your case you might have to use a different setting. Mind also to disable the modem sound events, if your modem does not have an embedded speaker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aioshin Posted March 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 (edited) I tried Kanotix Live, Mandriva, Knoppix Live, Ubuntu Live and Suse, then Connecting to Mandriva Dial-in Server but it wont allow me... but when on my Win2k, it will, no problem on browsing... So I wonder why the heck it wont allow me when Im on my linux, so I tried to setup a dialin-server on Centos.(at the office)..then a while ago, I tried to connect to it from home PC, which is now OpenSuse10... and viola!!! it did connect and compared when Im on Windows, it much faster...wierd though, I did not really understand what was the problem then, but for now, I'm happy that I am now able to connect to the internet via my Dial-in server at the office using Linux...btw, Im connecting using Kinternet tool of suse, but when using KPPP, I can't.. hmmmmnnn..... ken@linux:~/ffox> uname -aLinux linux 2.6.13-15-default #1 Tue Sep 13 14:56:15 UTC 2005 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux Considered Solved :P Edited March 19, 2006 by aioshin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
