Hi Folks,
I've patched NetBSD 1.5.2 with altq-3.0 The build and install
went fine, kernel build (with defaults options supplied by altq)
went fine.
I use a modified version of dip to contact my ISP (work), and have
dip start pppd on the appropriate tty.
I boot up the altq modified kernel, but I have not yet operated on
any altq devices or started altqd, etc.
When I contact my ISP for a connection:
1) dip is able to negotiate, and fire off pppd.
2) the machine becomes unresponsive on all other network interfaces
for a few (10?) seconds (machine has 3 ethernet interfaces).
3) pppd disconnects.
4) the machine interfaces come back to life.
(log file follows at end of message)
If I use otherwise the same kernel (not patched for altq, but same options)
pppd can connect and operate correctly.
I cannot find any reference to further conifgurational changes required...
Is there something I need to do with altq to allow connections on ppp
interfaces even though the other network interfaces seem to operate correctly?
Or does this seem like a problem?
Thanks for any help.
