Summary: Re mitsumi model FX001 and unexpected quit of ppp
Keywords: ppp mitsumi


I'd appreciate hearing from anyone with similar problems to the
following:-

1. The mcd0 probe on bootup does not seem to recognise a MITSUMI
	single speed CDROM reader model FX001. I've not made
	extensive tests under DOS, but booting DOS from a floppy
	and a CONFIG.SYS with the proper device driver shows
	a drive at IOA=300, IRQ10

2. I'm testing pppd between two 386BSD machines running FreeBSD1.0
	before attempts to use it as a dialup link to my INTERNET
	service provider. Modems are 4.2bis and run OK with cu from
	the taylor uucp. The file in /var/log/messages shows a
	connection made, successful login, and then a quit. The
	login for test_ppp which is being used has /tmp as directory
	and runs a shell script containing "pppd /dev/tty02 9600.
	I'm not out of steam on this one, but if anybody can tell me
	exactly what to do at each end, I would save some pain and 
	time.
