I want to get it working as well.
just to repeat my note - i made a _manual_ installation of rp-pppoe, followed their instructions exactly, and it worked. the only problem i saw was it over-wrote my DNS settings, and eventually i got that solved (i like my /etc/resolv.conf file the way i write it, not with software that manipulates it). btw, the modem is samsung AHT-E300, not EHT-300. the most peculear thing in the setup, was that they specifically stated that the ethernet interface connecting to the modem be NOT enabled on system boot, and not given any IP address. i ran 'ifconfig eth0 down' when testing the setup, and after things worked, i disabled it completely in redhat's boot scripts. did you try disabling the interface before running the 'adsl-start' script? regarding optoins i've set in /etc/ppp/rp-pppoe.conf, i have: ETH=eth0 [EMAIL PROTECTED] DEMAND=no DNSTYPE=NOCHANGE PEERDNS=no # the following two options are probably redundant - they are left from my # initial 'plays'. DNS1=192.117.47.4 DNS2=192.117.47.52 DEFAULTROUTE=yes CONNECT_TIMEOUT=30 CONNECT_POLL=2 ACNAME= SERVICENAME= PING="." CF_BASE=`basename $CONFIG` PIDFILE="/var/run/$CF_BASE-adsl.pid" SYNCHRONOUS=no CLAMPMSS=1412 LCP_INTERVAL=20 LCP_FAILURE=3 PPPOE_TIMEOUT=80 # i run firewalling via my own script - so i didn't want pppoe to mess # with the firewall's setup. FIREWALL=NONE LINUX_PLUGIN= PPPOE_EXTRA="" # this option causes pppd to print lots of debug information. on my # system, its debug is redirected into /var/log/debug. PPPD_EXTRA="debug" note: to make pppd's debug go into /var/log/debug, make sure you have the following line in /etc/syslog.conf : daemon.debug;daemon.notice /var/log/debug finally, in /etc/ppp/options, i have: lock # this one is redundant, since it was defined for pppoe topp, # but its there anyway. defaultroute # also probably redundant. user choo # important, to avoid having your machine insist on authenticating the # remote (server) side, and failing to do so. it could be that pppoe sets # this option on pppd's command line by itself - but i did not check that. noauth # also probably redundant. debug finally, in /etc/ppp/pap-secrets, i have the following two lines (one of which is probably redundant): choo * password "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" "Obezeq" "password" i added the second line before running pppoe - it _could_ be that this made [the/a] difference, since the user name defined in /etc/ppp/rp-pppoe.conf, is '[EMAIL PROTECTED]', not 'choo'. -- guy "For world domination - press 1, or dial 0, and please hold, for the creator." -- nob o. dy ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
