[gentoo-user] Problem configuring ppp forpppoe

[John covici]

Hi.  I am having difficulty configuring ppp to use pppoe.  A kernel

module pppoe and pppox are loaded, but I get the following error from

pppd:

/usr/sbin/pppd unknown option "eth2"



Now eth2 is what I have in the 

link_ppp0 line in the /etc/conf.d/net



Any assistance would be appreciated.



Here is the /etc/conf.d/net

# This blank configuration will automatically use DHCP for any net.*

# scripts in /etc/init.d.  To create a more complete configuration,

# please review /etc/conf.d/net.example and save your configuration

# in /etc/conf.d/net (this file :]!).

dns_domain_lo="covici.com"

dns_servers_lo=" 127.0.0.1 4.2.2.1 64.83.1.10"

postup() {

if [ ${IFACE} = lo ]; then

einfo setting host name again

domainname covici.com

hostname ccs.covici.com

if [ ${IFACE} = eth1 ]; then

killall ddclient

ddclient -file /etc/ddclient.conf -ip 67.62.15.196

     if [ "$pid_length" == "0" -a "$pid_length" != "" ]; then
