I dont see a point in bumping or quoting the same thing again.

If someone finds your post useful or has any questions,he/she will post.

I appreciate your work but I dont believe in "bumping" threads either.

@prakash: Don't laugh, but did you add the following in /etc/resolv.conf?
nameserver 61.1.96.69
nameserver 61.1.96.71
If so, plz forgive me i don't know the answer. :roll:

 

[praka123]

@Satissh S atleast u tried to help me that was gr8.

Solved.i deleted my username and passwd frm pap and chap files and dsl-provider file AND reinstalled old pppoe/pppoeconf debs.And now i can connect debian uses a diffrnt rp-pppoe way rather than same old RH way of adsl-start etc.

hmm... hey prakash,

I have a similar problem in Ubuntu... I configured pppoe using pppoeconf in sudo mode and set it to auto start during start up... Seems it is not doing so.... Any ideas?

 

[praka123]

@Icool_dude_prav: Is your network starting at boot?also what ppp packages d u
installed for adsl @least ppp,pppoeconf needed.

For my case,i tinkered with webmin-adsl as a last resort editing pppoe paths etc and i removed webmin-adsl as its not able to configure properly.its got something todo with pppoe package as ubuntu works gr8 without it.

 

[cool_dude_prav]

hmm... i have pppoe version is 1.5 i think

It did get started up at booting up only once...

So, must be I must play about with the settings, but by default, pppoeconf sets that the connection must be auto started at boot up.. So I wonder wat happened...
