Hello Scott, I'm not using DSL, so I can't be of much help. But pppd/pppoe is logging to /var/log/ppp.log, did you also looked at that one?
Instead of adding the "rp_pppoe_verbose 1" option to your interfaces file you can also try to set it as an argument in your "dsl-provider" script, like: plugin /usr/lib/pppd/rp-pppoe.so rp_pppoe_verbose 1 Eric > Hi, I'm using BuC 2.3 with a dynamic-IP, PPPoE, DSL connection. pppd and > pppoe are both version 2.4.2 Rev 2 (current, per the packages page). > > I'm seeking info from my ppp(oe) software about (esp) the name of the > access concentrator I'm connecting to.
