Package: pppoeconf Version: 1.7 Severity: important
Installed sarge. Ran pppoeconf asking for pppd to be run at boot time. Connection was made succesfully. However, upon rebooting the system, the command # pon dsl-provider Plugin rp-pppoe.so loaded. failed to establish an internet connection this time. Re-running pppoeconf as before resolves the problem and establishes a new connection. I'm expecting to run pppoeconf to configure my system so that I can run "pon dsl-provider" and "poff" to connect and disconnect from the internet. Note: I've added pppoe to /etc/modules, but this does not help. Also, in /etc/ppp I have a file: ppp_on_boot.dsl but not a file: ppp_on_boot Thanks, Phill -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.4.27-2-386 Locale: LANG=en_CA, LC_CTYPE=en_CA (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages pppoeconf depends on: ii gettext-base 0.14.4-2 GNU Internationalization utilities ii ppp 2.4.3-20050321+2 Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) daem ii pppoe 3.5-4 PPP over Ethernet driver ii sed 4.1.2-8 The GNU sed stream editor ii whiptail [whiptail-prov 0.51.6-20 Displays user-friendly dialog boxe -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
