synce-serial-config generates a pppd "peer" file containing the linkname command. FreeBSD pppd doesn't have a linkname command. Fix: Patch below provides files/patch-aa to remove the linkname command from script in distfile. (cd ports/palm/synce-serial; mkdir files; cd files; patch) How-To-Repeat: # synce-serial-config /dev/cuaXX # synce-serial-start Check logs; pppd will have bailed at seeing "linkname" in the /etc/ppp/peers/synce-device file
State Changed From-To: open->closed Committed. Thanks!
