Hi,
I'm trying to set up a pppoe link from client to server for some
experiments. The client side is sarge, on the server side I tried
sarge and etch (all net-installed). In both cases, pppoe dump
shows that the server terminates the connection after the session
is started, that is, the client receives PADS immediately followed
by PADT. It seems the problem is that pppoe-server is unable
to start the pppd process.
On sarge the pppd (2.4.3) just complains
pppd: This system lacks kernel support for PPP etc.
and exits. I believe the default sarge kernel should have built-in
support for PPP, but I just can't convince the pppd to believe
the same. Since I've seen some notions about pppd 2.4.3 being
unusable with pppoe-server due to bugs, I tried dist-upgrade to etch.
On etch (pppd 2.4.4), strace led me to suspect a bug in pppoe
(or rather misconfiguration at build time). The call to pppd looked like
execve("pppd", args...) = -1 ENOENT
As far as I understand execve requires full path to executable.
Please, could someone guide me to the light :) I'm unsure about
where to go from here.
Artem.
