Hi.

I am having trouble getting ppp to work within vimages.  Without vimages, my

Which version of FreeBSD are you using?


vimages, I assign vr0 to it (continuing with the name vr0 instead of eth0)
and ppp cannot detect it therefore I am unable to request for an IP.  I am
wondering whether this is a limitation on vimages/jails running ppp.

Here is the error I am receiving:

This sounds more like if you had some special charater in the config
file somewhere?

Here is my ppp.conf:

which I just started inside a vimage (with a different interface name)
and it started just fine in -foreground, even though I don't have a
single netgraph module loaded (in base system).


I also attempted to assign tun0 to a vimage, but it seems to lose its IP.

What you would do if you have ppp running in base and want the data
inside a vimage is to use a bridge.  If you move an interface between
network stacks basically all upper layer configuration is reset and
initialized as if the interface was just created.
