Summary: default route IP set when installing PPP and LAN
Version: 1.771
Platform: PC
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
When upgrading with Mandrake 9.1 beta1 a system with both Internet connexion
wia modem (using ppp) and a LAN, a default route is set to the LAN IP adresse
that prevent Internet connexion to work.
pppd documentation explains clearly that a default route MUST NOT be set for
pppd to work correctly, as it cannot replace a new default.
This bug was also present with previous installation with 9.0 distro.
I cured the problem by putting the following line at the end of rc.d/rc.local :
route del default
Then pppd can assign a default route when connecting to the ISP.
