My pppd won't connect properly in non-root mode because it has to
authenticate itself because I have a default route to the internet (eth0)
when I type in "route" I get the usual routing information and at the
bottom it says:
default [blah blah] eth0
My connection dials up and works FINE if I remove the default using "route
del default" but I don't want to have to do this every time.
-------
My question:
Where in the startup is Linux being told that I want eth0 to be my default
route? And how do I STOP it being told that?
-------
It's a pain having to change to root and removing eth0 as the default
whenever I want to connect to the internet... especially since I don't want
eth0 to be the default at ANY time. 8-)
I suppose I could just add a script somewhere (where?) with "route del
default" in it... but I'd much rather find out where it's being set in the
first place.
Thanks for your help.
