As I pointed out before, you have DHCP running on your rge0 interface, and if you don't want to use DHCP, then you don't want that. For your configuration, using both at the same time is toxic. (It's perhaps worth finding out why you have a rogue DHCP server on your network ... but maybe not ...) > My second OS is archlinux, and as said, I use pppoe-start to connect.

The configuration is different, so the results are different. > I can't see the problem, as I severy lack knowledge on network interfaces and > how they are up on this level. I'm sorry. I hope my logs help. Maybe its > OpenIndiana's network manager that somehow interferes with pppoe? I don't know exactly how you have your system configured. At a guess, you're using NWAM. If so, then you'll need to search around for an expert in that. I'm not one. I've changed the subject line in order to try to get someone's attention. On a system using NWAM, 'svc:/network/physical:nwam' is enabled, and configuration is done using the NWAM configuration tools. Again, not an expert in this. But there should be a way to disable rge0, which is what you really need to do here. (I've read through the NWAM documentation, but, frankly, I don't have the patience left to understand it.) On a system that uses the old-style configuration, that ':nwam' service is not enabled, and 'svc:/network/physical:default' is instead enabled. Configuration of that service depends on version, but usually uses ipadm. Something like 'ipadm delete-if rge0' should do it, if you were using that type of configuration. You might try reading through some of the documentation: http://wiki.openindiana.org/oi/4.2+Network+management -- James Carlson 42.703N 71.076W <carls...@workingcode.com> _______________________________________________ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list OpenIndiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
