1 I use adsl to connect to the internet and I use rp-pppoe in the past.
2 But I found in the /etc/conf.d/net.example that the rp-pppoe module
3 "is being deprecated in favour of the PPP module". So I tried to use
4 ppp to dialup the adsl connection and succeeded. But I have 2
5 questions now.
6
7 (1) Why rp-pppoe is deprecated?
8
9 (2) Every time I call /etc/init.d/net.ppp0 there is a warning saying
10 that "net.ppp0 is started but is inactive" This is my /etc/conf.d/net
11
12 modules=( "iproute2")
13
14 config_eth0=( "192.168.0.2/24" )
15
16 config_ppp0=( "ppp" )
17 link_ppp0="eth0"
18 plugins_ppp0=( "pppoe" )
19 username_ppp0='xxx'
20 password_ppp0='xxx'
21 pppd_ppp0=( "updetach" "defaultroute" "usepeerdns")
22
23 Any suggestion?
