Yeah, this doesn't have any configuration for your ppp0 device. Please read /etc/conf.d/net.example for how to properly configure your pppoe connection using the new baselayout. > > 2.

On my computer: $ ls /etc/init.d/net.* -l lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 Aug 27 01:17 /etc/init.d/net.br0 -> net.lo lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 Sep 15 21:17 /etc/init.d/net.eth0 -> net.lo lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 Aug 2 02:11 /etc/init.d/net.eth1 -> net.lo -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 30341 Sep 15 23:00 /etc/init.d/net.lo I belive you'll need to have a net.eth0 that is a symlink to net.lo as well as a net.ppp0 that is a symlink to net.lo. Before we go any further, what version of baselayout are you using? -- "If there's one thing we've established over the years, it's that the vast majority of our users don't have the slightest clue what's best for them in terms of package stability." -- Gentoo Developer Ciaran McCreesh
