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
