hi shawn!
sorry, i should have been clearer: superrescue is a rescue-cd, i.e. like a boot/rescue-floppy, but with 700 megs on it, lots of tools and some luxury: x11/gnome. it's a boot-cd, which is independent of any hd. that means upgrading rp-pppoe on the cd is probably not that easy. dmesg: ... PPP generic driver version 2.4.1 PPP Deflate Compression module registered ... (quite normal, but no tulip drivers, no nic/eth info) lsmod: ppp_deflate bsd_comp ppp_async ppp_generic ... (all used by autoclean!?) though lan-connections work, adsl-dialup is not working: command #ifconfig<enter> should show ppp0 like eth0, if up and should do this always, or...? - i think so. dns-issue? if ppp0 was up, i could still connect+telnet to static ip-adresses on the web, like the pop/smtp-server of my isp. that's not possible. at the the moment i'm sitting in front of two computer, a stable linux-server/station and the one i loaded the superrescue-boot-cd on. the mail and the (dynamic)IP-adresses in the mail-headers you are reading, are from the stable computer. if you have another idea: great! el Shawn Lamson wrote: > Sorry I don't know what superrescue is...
