Hi nilesh
Delete all entries of adsl from webmin
go to the console , log in as root and run
adsl-setup.
Try running this command as root and see if you get an answer.
$pppoe -I eth1 -A -m 1412
eth1 is the interface to which your pacenet line is connected.
This will give an output of this form.
Access-Concentrator: <sometext>
Service-Name: <servicetext>
--------------------------------------------------
AC-Ethernet-Address: <some mac address>
then go to /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts and edit ifcfg-ppp0
and add the entries
ACNAME=<sometext> # whatever reply you got in the above command
SERVICENAME=<servicetext>
(you can initially try only with the ACNAME entry)
cd to /etc/ppp
just make sure pap-secrets contains your username and password.
then run adsl-stop just to kill all active adsl scripts and try connecting
using
adsl-connect
If you still cannot connect , get in touch with pacenet and tell them
to create a Linux username for you.
Hi,
Just check whether you are getting a default gateway by using
route -n
there should be a line like
0.0.0.0 202.55.22.22 ppp0 UG #something
if there is no default gateway add it using
route add default gw dev ppp0
then check whether you can resolve websites and make sure you have your
ISP's dns entires in /etc/resolv.conf
try doing a dig yahoo.com
or try going by ip-address

Subject: [ILUG-BOM] Pacenet connection problems.
> Hi,
> I've been a Pacenet user for more than a year and had given up trying to
connect through 'rp-pppoe'.However, after the discussion that took place on
this list a few days ago, I decided to try again.
> Using <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, I can connect & the connection shows up as
ppp0 in 'ifconfig -a'.However, I cannot ping any IP addresses and connect to
any web-sites outside the local net.Same problem in Slack 9 as well as FC1.
> In WinXP, I setup a dial-up connection that uses <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> as
the username.Using this, I can successfully connect without the Pacenet
dialer.
> Any suggestions as to what I should try?
> Thanks in advance & I apologise for bringing up the same topic again.
