Public bug reported: Even after having locally fixed
https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/knet/+bug/71080 the knet fails to connect via PPPoE. The following PPPD message can be found in the output: The remote system (hostname) is required to authenticate itself but I couldn't find any suitable secret (password) for it to use to do so. (None of the available passwords would let it use an IP address.) The edgy pppd requires probably the * in the address field in pppd's chap-secrets file (was not the case in dapper). ** Affects: knet (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- knet failes to connect, incorrect chap-secrets https://launchpad.net/bugs/71196 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
