Package: ppp Version: 2.4.5-4 Severity: normal To avoid confusion and to simplify some firewall scripts, traffic monitoring, etc it would be good to be able to assign a particular interface name for a connection. So instead of having ppp0 and ppp1 randomly assigned to two sessions I could have pppispa and pppispb or something similar.
It is possible to do everything you desire by changing the scripts, but it would be easier and less confusing if an interface could be renamed. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (350, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_AU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages ppp depends on: ii libc6 2.11.2-2 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libpam-modules 1.1.1-3 Pluggable Authentication Modules f ii libpam-runtime 1.1.1-3 Runtime support for the PAM librar ii libpam0g 1.1.1-3 Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii libpcap0.8 1.1.1-2 system interface for user-level pa ii procps 1:3.2.8-9 /proc file system utilities ppp recommends no packages. ppp suggests no packages. -- Configuration Files: /etc/chatscripts/gprs [Errno 13] Permission denied: u'/etc/chatscripts/gprs' /etc/chatscripts/pap [Errno 13] Permission denied: u'/etc/chatscripts/pap' -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
