Hi all,
 I have a question maybe not regarding eciadsl driver but pppd instead.
Anyway, I'm using eciadsl in this case, it means I have a adsl connection
(PPPoA, RFC2364) and you in this mailing list have too. So maybe you
encountered the same problem and can help, or at least you know pppd
networking better then me and have some knowledge to share.



pppd does return wrong DNS ip address. See /var/log/messages :
...
pppd[639]: local IP address 111.222.333.444 (*)
pppd[639]: remote IP address 192.168.100.1
pppd[639]: primary   DNS address 195.31.88.203
pppd[639]: secondary DNS address 222.333.444.555 (*)
...

(*) = fake
The primary DNS address is IMHO totally wrong!
My provider gives me two DNS IP, the first of which is the secondary DNS
address above, and then another one, which belongs to the same 16bit network
of the primary, and does not appear in /var/log/messages.

/etc/resolv.conf is correct and contains the two correct DNS IPs.

As I know those four lines in /var/log/messages are provided by pppd and the
infos in there are received by pppd upon connection. Does it mean that my
provider is providing wrong DNS IP? pppd gets the IP address and the rest
using DHCP, right? So this informations are propagated with DHCP, right? Do
I have to call my ISP and inform that theyr DHCPD server (or it's
administrator) has problem?

Any hint is wellcome,
    Roberto
