Hiho!
After a suspend to disk, NetworkManager fails to connect to my PPPoE DSL
line. I use exactly the same username & password as in my plain standard
init-script, however the init-script connects fine. All I can see from
pppd right now is "LCP terminated by peer". Now how do I tell
NetworkManager to pass the "debug" option to pppd, so I can see what's
going on?
NetworkManager itself does debug:
Jul 1 15:10:52 wald NetworkManager: <debug> [1246453852.053712]
nm_ppp_manager_start(): Command line: /usr/sbin/pppd nodetach lock
nodefaultroute user *** plugin rp-pppoe.so nic-eth0 noauth nodeflate
usepeerdns mru 1492 mtu 1492 lcp-echo-failure 5 lcp-echo-interval 30
ipparam /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/PPP/7 plugin
/usr/lib64/pppd/2.4.4/nm-pppd-plugin.so
Btw: Wouldn't it be logical to also pass the "debug" option to pppd if
nm itself debugs, too? I'd also very much appreciate a text field in the
configuration dialog for entering arbitrary options to pppd. If this
needs to be protected from the "average user", one could add something
like a binary "expert mode" switch. I think implementing a "normal
mode"/"expert mode" model could greatly improve nm's flexibility without
compromising its usability and robustness.
thanks...
