Thanks: I've done that & my I/net connection doesn't seem affected. |

So that one looks like an oversight by the maintainer. |

I've read & noted the subsequent msgs in the thread: thanks. |

A further question: since I had previously updated /etc/conf.d/net , |
| 31 |
I was given a router by my ISP & therefore started to use DHCP. |
| 32 |
The new net.example file suggests I might make further changes in 'net' |
| 33 |
& simplify my configuration files. What I have now in 'net' is : |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
# For a static configuration use eg : |
| 36 |
# PP 111129 : drop Bash syntax to avoid start-up warning |
| 37 |
#config_eth0=( "192.168.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255" ) |
| 38 |
config_eth0="192.168.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255" |
| 39 |
# You need to create the PPP net script yourself: |
| 40 |
# do it via 'cd /etc/init.d ; ln -s net.lo net.ppp0' |
| 41 |
# We have to instruct ppp0 to actually use ppp |
| 42 |
config_ppp0=( "ppp" ) |
| 43 |
# Each PPP interface requires an interface to use as a "Link" |
| 44 |
link_ppp0="eth0" # PPPoE requires an ethernet interface |
| 45 |
# Specify what pppd plugins you want to use: available are: |
| 46 |
# pppoe, pppoa, capi, dhcpc, minconn, radius, radattr, radrealms, winbind |
| 47 |
plugins_ppp0=( "pppoe" ) |
| 48 |
# PPP requires at least a username. |
| 49 |
# It will use the password specified in /etc/ppp/*-secrets |
| 50 |
username_ppp0='****@***' |
| 51 |
#pppd_ppp0=( "debug" "updetach" "noauth" "defaultroute" "usepeerdns" "persist" ) |
| 52 |
pppd_ppp0=( "updetach" "defaultroute" ) |
| 53 |
|
| 54 |
Does anyone have further suggestions or comments ? |
