DNS issue after UTM reboot

Gheb, if we were going to see anything in the DNS logs, it would be named lines before the ones you posted

Just copied a part of the DNS proxy log and all the logs from PPPoE .

Thanks in advance for help

Your last post confirms that you asked the right questions in your first post.

First, get the REF for the Interface.  Assuming it's named "External" and is defined as PPPoE, do as root:

cc get_object_by_name interface pppoe External

Assuming that returns REF_IntPppExternal, add the following line to /etc/crontab-static:

@reboot root /usr/local/bin/confd-client.plx interface_ppp_reconnect REF_IntPppExternal

In WebAdmin, to force the addition of your line to /etc/crontab, g to the 'Configuration' tab of 'Management >> Up2Date', change a value, [Apply], change it back to its original value and [Apply].

Did that resolve your issue?

Cheers - Bob

Didn't work for me, cc returned 0 when I ran get_object_by_name

Please show a picture of the Edit of the Interface definition in WebAdmin.

Hi Bob - this should do it. Dan

Hi Bob - this should do it. Dan

In that case, Dan, the command is more complicated as you need some REGEX-fu:

cc get_object_by_name interface pppoe 'External \(WAN\)'

Cheers - Bob
Edit PS Just saw that you have a Realtek NIC.  If you have any issues, also see #7 in Rulz.

Of course, I didn't see the (WAN) element as I'd been looking at it for too long! That got it. Interestingly the get object pulls up the line:

'reconnect_timeout' => 60,

Which put me on to the advanced options in interfaces where I get to select 5s, 1min or 15mins. Do you know if there's a way to manually change the value to 300s on the command line as I have a suspicion that may help?

I'll assume in the following that you found REF_IntPppExternal, Dan.  "Standard warning about making changes from the command line."

cc change_object REF_IntPppExternal reconnect_timeout 300

Did that work?
