Does this help? Thanks. My `/etc/network/interface' is very poor: # This file describes the network interfaces available on your system # and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5). # The loopback network interface auto lo iface lo inet loopback . Now, suppose I want the following ppp connection log output: local IP address 151.82.24.152 remote IP address 10.6.6.6 primary DNS address 193.70.152.25 secondary DNS address 193.70.192.25 . In /etc/resolv.conf I suppose I have to put the lines: nameserver 193.70.152.25 nameserver 193.70.192.25 . How do you suggest I should edit /etc/network/interface?
