Hi,
I installed CentOS 3.3 and kept the machine up2date.
I installed poptop and the newest ppp-cvs version (
ppp-2.4.3-0.cvs_20040527.6)
We are running a ssh + ppp tunnel for our internet tunnel/tunnel to our NOC.
After the upgrade we see these error messages while starting the tunnel:
Jan 24 15:00:40 natgw modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module
ppp-compress-26
Jan 24 15:00:40 natgw modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module
ppp-compress-24
Jan 24 15:00:41 natgw modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module
ppp-compress-21
Jan 24 15:00:41 natgw modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module
ppp-compress-26
Jan 24 15:00:41 natgw modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module
ppp-compress-24
Jan 24 15:00:41 natgw modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module
ppp-compress-26
Jan 24 15:00:41 natgw modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module
ppp-compress-24
Jan 24 15:00:42 natgw modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module
ppp-compress-21
I googled and found that we have to add some aliases,like so:
/etc/modules.conf:
alias ppp-compress-21 bsd_comp
#alias ppp-compress-21 off
alias ppp-compress-24 ppp_deflate
alias ppp-compress-26 ppp_deflate
But still after a pppd restart the problem persists (ppp failes and
reconnects) ..am I a missing a package or do I have to do another thing
to enable these modules?
I can find the .c files:
[root@natgw etc]# locate bsd_comp
/usr/src/linux-2.4.21-27.0.2.EL/drivers/net/bsd_comp.c
but not the modules (.o files)
Thanks for your help.
