This is no longer the case: o Create a log file. Ppp uses syslog(3) to log information. A common log file name is /var/log/ppp.log. To make output go to this file, put the following lines in the /etc/syslog.conf file: !ppp *.*/var/log/ppp.log Make sure you use actual TABs here. If you use spaces, the line will be silently ignored by syslogd(8). >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: State-Changed-From-To: open->closed State-Changed-By: billf State-Changed-When: Thu Jan 28 14:55:11 PST 1999 State-Changed-Why: Updated in src/usr.sbin/ppp/ppp.8 rev1.144(HEAD) and 1.142.2.1(RELENG_3) >Unformatted:
