I am connected to adsl modem cum router huawei smartAX MT841 with doing auto pppoe and dhcp server. It used to work in sarge ok. Now I have to make the interface up and use dhclient which I didn't need to do in sarge. Any solutions to auto start during boot. I tried with both auto etho and allow-hotplug eth0 in interfaces. Still it doesn't help. -- L.V.Gandhi http://lvgandhi.tripod.com/ linux user No.205042 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
