PPPOE config not workingForum: Networking Topic: PPPOE config not working started by: Bill_oute Posted by Bill_oute on July 18 2005,14:17
Hi all!It looks like I have some problems to setup my network configuration. Here is the current situation: - My PPP kernel support is validated in modules - The last PPP packages are installed via synaptic - pppoeconf : goes trough it witout any errors - pon : " /usr/sbin/pppd: In file /etc/ppp/peers/provider: unrecogniezd option '/dev/modem'' ". But I have no modem! It's a PPPOE configuration through my ethernet port. - pppstatus : "active interface is pppo" and nothing else - poff : "No pppd is running . None stopped ' " Any suggestion? Except this config problem, DSL is great! Thanks to those who work on it! Cheers, Bill_oute Posted by Bill_oute on July 18 2005,15:38
In addition, it looks like the command 'pon' reads the file : /etc/ppp/peers/provider. and this file associates pon to a modem speed 115200, which I've never configured or declared anywhere.It's a weird problem because pppoeconf should set this file correctly and then, pon reads the data in the /etc/ppp/peers/provider file to connect to the network no? If I'm wrong or don't understand what's going on... tell me! Thanks... |
