Dear Rafael,
For normal users to be able to start "pon dsl-provider", /usr/sbin/pppoe
has to be suid root. You can set that like this:

After you've done that, permission levels should look like this:

the various "update" scripts. (I went to /bin, /sbin, /usr/bin, and

a) Run a caching-only nameserver on the modem box.
b) Just put the ISP's three nameservers in /etc/resolv.conf and be happy.
The only real purpose served by "dynamic DNS" is to save users the trouble
of typing

Not into demand dialing. I'd rather ssh into it and pon / poff by
hand. That way I can minimise the connect time, even if it is less
convenient. So I've set it up that way, and it works.

aling on it with pppconfig, make it the gateway
for your other box, and you'll be off and running.

There's an NFS option in the kernel config that allows to directly

the modem box and set it up to connect the external and modem serial
ports. Try pon from the main box - nothing.

Since you seem dead-set against buying a couple of NICs...
I would take a completely different tack and try using SLIP, so you'll
have regular TCP/IP networking go
to do the same thing. So I installed it on
the modem box and set it up to connect the external and modem serial
ports. Try pon from the main box - nothing. 0 characters sent or
received.
I replaced the 3-wire serial cable with a "proper null modem", RX/TX

Do it anyway. It's only a security risk for incoming connection.

I doubt that it does.

Thanks for the reply; I should have been more specific. Since

I suspect I need to feed the "noauth" option to KPPP, but it says this
can only be done by root (whereas I could log in as root and verify this
"noauth" issue to be the problem, that doesn't really solve the

That's how it is intended to work. One user should not be able to kill
another's connection.
