Tried what sort of thing? What didn't work? Because for once I'm going to take some sympathy, instead of doing the right thing and trying to get you to learn how to do something, I'm going to spoon-feed you.
You want lo to come up at boot? Edit /etc/network/interfaces, add the following lines: auto lo iface lo inet loopback You want PPP to only connect once? Disable any on-boot scripts that are loading it (say, ppp) by doing a 'update-rc.d -f pppd remove'. Use the corresponding entry in /etc/network/interfaces to ONLY do it. This keeps everything consistent, easy to manage, etc etc. Also, maybe in future you can explain a little more how you got pppoeconf to 'set up my ifconfig'...

It didn't work. I've tried quite a few things and none of the worked. I really do need some one to tell me. Sorry. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
