Nice idea, thank you.
D'led rp-pppoe-3.1-2mdk.586.rpm and rp-pppoe-gui-3.1-2mdk.586.rpm
Installed them without error message.
Started tkpppoe as root and filled in the appropriate data (took them
from the backed up files of the before running version.
Started the connection.......
The 2 small led fields are supposed to change to red, don't they?
Well, they stayed grey and after timeout I got:
------------------------------------------------------------
"Error starting connection. Child process exited abnormally."
------------------------------------------------------------
Which child process? It doesn't tell.
In /var/log/messages I get:
------------------------------------------------------------
pppd[2674]: pppd 2.4.0 started by root, uid 0
pppd[2674]: Couldn't attach to PPP unit 0:Invalid argument
pppd[2674]: Exit.
adsl-connect: ADSL connection lost; attempting re-connection.
------------------------------------------------------------
I looked at the script in /usr/bin but did not find any fault.
I restarted adsl with the old adsl-start script and it worked ok.
Nice gui but not working
