To remove the IPADDRESS from eth0, do
ifconfig eth0 down
ifconfig eth0 0.0.0.0 up
Yes, I did get rid of it.

Naw, not how many or percentile, but who, specifically,
can help us with a replica of your system. ;-)
My feeble attempt at humor.

locate pppoe.conf
on my system reports:
/etc/ppp/pppoe.conf
/usr/local/rp-pppoe-3.5/configs/pppoe.conf
I think that 'adsl-setup' should have created a
'pppoe.conf' file. Where it was placed, I'm not sure.
This turned out very interesting. Despite the message I quote, roaring
penguin under RH8.0 no longer stgores its configuration in
/etc/pppoe.conf. I know it stores info becasue when I rerun adsl-setup
I see it, but there's now no pppoe.conf file.
Give Ray what he asked for.
"uname -a", "ifconfig -a", & "netstat -nr".
I will when I can. switching hard disks when there's a bunch strung on
three different scsi channels is a pain. So I have to leap in and out
fairly quickly. I'll get the info and pass it along asap.
I've edited some IP addresses. Here are mine:
Thanks. Info appreciated. I'll compare at this end as soon as I can.
And here is my pppoe.conf for your perusal:
DNS1=
DNS2= 000.000.000.000 ;-)
What's this? I have some onfiburation in
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg.conf. It is somewwhats like your
own. But you have a much bigger ppp0e timeout value, and I may try
that because I'm begginng to seuspec a timing problem.
