Hi all, I have a new Broadband Internet connection. It uses PPPoE with a username and password to connect to internet. I can connect to Internet with Windows 2003 (easy click and configure) so the DSL Router is working and the username and password is correct. I would like to use OpenBSD 3.8 to connect to Internet with it and not Windows 2003.
I read the man pages and FAQ and did accordingly ( I suppose ) and it is not working. Could some one please point out as to what could I have done wrong? Details of my OpenBSD 3.8 system: I have two interfaces "rl0" "rl1" rl0 has the PPPoE connection and rl1 is connected to the LAN Switch. # ifconfig -a lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 33224 groups: lo inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128 inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x6 rl0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 lladdr 00:50:fc:7d:4e:50 media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX full-duplex) status: active inet6 fe80::250:fcff:fe7d:4e50%rl0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1 rl1: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 lladdr 00:08:a1:7b:bf:52 media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX full-duplex) status: active inet 172.17.1.1 netmask 0xfff00000 broadcast 172.31.255.255 inet6 fe80::208:a1ff:fe7b:bf52%rl1 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x2 pflog0: flags=141<UP,RUNNING,PROMISC> mtu 33224 pfsync0: flags=0<> mtu 1348 enc0: flags=0<> mtu 1536 pppoe0: flags=a851<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,LINK1,MULTICAST> mtu 1492 dev: rl0 state: session sid: 0x10f1 PADI retries: 1 PADR retries: 0 time: 00:00:06 groups: pppoe egress inet 0.0.0.0 --> 0.0.0.1 netmask 0xffffffff inet6 fe80::250:fcff:fe7d:4e50%pppoe0 -> prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x7 # cat /etc/sysctl.conf |grep inet.ip.forwarding net.inet.ip.forwarding=1 # 1=Permit forwarding (routing) of packets # # cat /etc/mygate cat: /etc/mygate: No such file or directory # # cat /etc/hostname.rl0 up # # cat /etc/hostname.rl1 inet 172.17.1.1 255.240.0.0 NONE # # cat /etc/hostname.pppoe0 pppoedev rl0 !/sbin/ifconfig rl0 up !/usr/sbin/spppcontrol \$if myauthproto=pap [EMAIL PROTECTED] myauthkey=zzzzzz !/sbin/ifconfig \$if inet 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.1 netmask 0xffffffff !/sbin/route add default 0.0.0.1 link1 up # # cat /etc/pf.conf pass all # route show commands hangs for a long time :-( # route flush default 0.0.0.1 done loopback localhost done 172.16.1.0 00:11:95:c0:c7:33 done BASE-ADDRESS.MCAST.N localhost done ::/128 localhost.broadband. done ::/128 localhost.broadband. done ::127.0.0.0/128 localhost.broadband. done ::224.0.0.0/128 localhost.broadband. done ::255.0.0.0/128 localhost.broadband. done ::ffff:0.0.0.0/128 localhost.broadband. done 2002::/128 localhost.broadband. done 2002:7f00::/128 localhost.broadband. done 2002:e000::/128 localhost.broadband. done 2002:ff00::/128 localhost.broadband. done fe80::/128 localhost.broadband. done fe80::250:fcff:fe7d: 00:50:fc:7d:4e:50 done fe80::208:a1ff:fe7b: 00:08:a1:7b:bf:52 done fe80::1%lo0 link#6 done fe80::250:fcff:fe7d: link#7 done fec0::/128 localhost.broadband. done # # sh /etc/netstart spppcontrol: SIOCSIFGENERIC(SPPPIOSDEFS): Device busy add net default: gateway 0.0.0.1 # What could be the problem?
