I use adsl to connect to the internet and I use rp-pppoe in the past. But I found in the /etc/conf.d/net.example that the rp-pppoe module "is being deprecated in favour of the PPP module". So I tried to use ppp to dialup the adsl connection and succeeded. But I have 2 questions now.
(1) Why rp-pppoe is deprecated? (2) Every time I call /etc/init.d/net.ppp0 there is a warning saying that "net.ppp0 is started but is inactive" This is my /etc/conf.d/net modules=( "iproute2") config_eth0=( "192.168.0.2/24" ) config_ppp0=( "ppp" ) link_ppp0="eth0" plugins_ppp0=( "pppoe" ) username_ppp0='xxx' password_ppp0='xxx' pppd_ppp0=( "updetach" "defaultroute" "usepeerdns") Any suggestion? -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
