Did you run it with a device name? Without a device name -- as you're quoting above -- it exits with an error, and produces output that looks like this: 2008/03/04 07:58:13EST: Usage: 2008/03/04 07:58:13EST: /usr/lib/inet/pppoec [-os#] [-v] <dev> [<service> [<server> [only]]] 2008/03/04 07:58:13EST: or 2008/03/04 07:58:13EST: /usr/lib/inet/pppoec [-o#] [-v] -i <dev> If you specify a device name here, but previously failed to configure the Ethernet interface correctly, you should get output that looks like this instead: 2008/03/04 07:59:20EST: /usr/lib/inet/pppoec: PPPTUN_SCTL rge0:pppoed: No such process However, if you ran it with the right device name and it was configured properly, and all the pppoec command did as a result was "hang" for 3 seconds and then exit without producing output, then that means there's no PPPoE server available on that interface, or the server is not responding to standard PPPoE discovery messages. A snoop trace might help ferret out the problem, but it sounds like there's either no connection or no server. Are you sure your provider wants you to run PPPoE, and that you need to run it? Is there any chance that you're in Brazil and are suffering with the local telco that uses the non-standard 3COM boxes with Ethertypes 3C12/3C13 for PPPoE? If so, then you may be out of luck in doing this. You'll need to get an external box that understands how to deal with this (a "router" or "firewall"), or contribute a fix for CR 4695172 via OpenSolaris, or (if you're on S10 or older with a service contract) talk to your local Sun representative. (Or find a better provider, I guess.) -- James Carlson, Solaris Networking <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sun Microsystems / 35 Network Drive 71.232W Vox +1 781 442 2084 MS UBUR02-212 / Burlington MA 01803-2757 42.496N Fax +1 781 442 1677 _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
