in.routed automatically sends out RIP packets every 30 seconds. This will keep your PPP interface up. To prevent this, you can put the following entry in your /etc/gateways file: %%%% cat /etc/gateways norip ipdptp0 This will allow you to continue running in.routed, without have it keep your PPP interface constantly up. Another Tip Sheet exists for PPP which explains many routing problems associated with a PPP interface. 4.
