Hello all,
I'm able to get userland pppoe working, but I'm having a hard time
getting kernel pppoe to work properly. Here are my config
files. Is there anything I'm doing wrong, I believe my config file
follows what man 4 pppoe states.
# file /etc/hostname.pppoe0
inet 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 0.0.0.1 pppoedev xl0 \
authproto pap authname 'username' \
^--------^-- NEEDED?
For my username, the quotes are not needed, you are right on this
assertion.
authkey 'password' up
^--------^---------- NEEDED?
!/sbin/route add default 0.0.0.1
However, for my password I must supply it in quotes, my password has a
strange character that throws a wrench to the whole thing. It's one of
those
infamous metacharacter I believe the term is called.
I did not verify whether it matters, but I do not use `'` in my
hostname.pppoe0.
# file /etc/hostname.xl0
up
