No, I don't deactivate ppp_on_boot. Here is what happens: If I turn on DSL modem before Linux is booted I get error message: PADS: System-Error: No more sessions accepted on this connection and I have eth0 interface up and ppp0 down. If I want to get my DSL connection working after that I have to bring down eth0 first, then turn off the modem, then I type 'pon dsl-provider' and then I finally turn the modem on again. After that both eth0 and ppp0 are up and connection works fine. If I do the same thing without switching the modem off I cannot get connected, and I get the same error message. I didn't edit manually any of the scripts (other than pap and chap secrets) and I didn't remove any files.
