[Bug 157993] Re: configuring a pppoe connection with pppoeconf locks local network functionality
just use the following lines in /etc/network/interfaces auto lo iface lo inet loopback iface dsl-provider inet ppp provider dsl-provider take care that you don't name your ethernet device in that config. otherwise network manager won't manage it anymore. Let me know if that helped. ** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete ** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium Assignee: (unassigned) => Alexander Sack (asac) ** Summary changed: - configuring a pppoe connection with pppoeconf locks local network functionality + pppoe connection over NetworkManager 0.6 managed ethernet device doesn't work -- pppoe connection over NetworkManager 0.6 managed ethernet device doesn't work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/157993 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 157993] Re: configuring a pppoe connection with pppoeconf locks local network functionality
Well, the fact that your modem works both as a router and a modem make me a bit hesitant on how to deal with this bug. But it is basically a known fact that pppoe is incompatible with the Network Manager. And there is a specification that would be hoped to be deal with in Hardy, although development on this seems slow. In fact, there is 2 specifications that seems to have not known of each other before recently: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/pppoeconf-gui (accepted for Hardy, but still in new state). https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/dial-up-support Basically, it seems that pppoeconf create an entry in /etc/interfaces, but generally, NetwworkManager ignores interfaces having an entry in /etc/interfaces. Which suggest you should rather use 'pon dsl-provider' and optionally 'poff' to use pppoe for now, rather than Network Manager. Anyway, I am confirming the bug to let a network-manager decide more appropriately how to deal with this bug. ** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed ** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu) Assignee: Paul Dufresne (dufresnep) => (unassigned) -- configuring a pppoe connection with pppoeconf locks local network functionality https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/157993 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

ah now, after doing the last changes, even the modem connection thing (which was left behind the last time) disappeared from the network manager. thanks for your time :) -- configuring a pppoe connection with pppoeconf locks local network functionality https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/157993 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

here they are. this time to make it work again i had to remove completely the ppp folder and change restore the interfaces bak-0 file inside /etc/network/. ** Attachment added: "bug" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/10683014/bug -- configuring a pppoe connection with pppoeconf locks local network functionality https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/157993 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Well, we would need /var/log/syslog when the system works, and one when the system don't work. Also the versions you use, which can be obtained by "dpgk -l | grep network-manager". ** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Paul Dufresne (dufresnep) Status: New => Incomplete -- configuring a pppoe connection with pppoeconf locks local network functionality https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/157993 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

** Description changed: Binary package hint: network-manager - situation: ubuntu gutsy with latestest updates as of now and latest network manager + situation: ubuntu gutsy with latest updates as of now and latest network manager The network has a router which can work also as a eth modem (pppoe connection) which will connect directly with a public ip (5 available) how to reproduce: -check that the network is working fine even on internet trough the router furnished connection -try executing pppoeconf and finish the pppoe connection setup (it was all default except that it shouldn't automatically connect on bootup) -connect as of now it's all working fine i can still access the network trough the normal way and internet trough the pppoe connection. ifconfing will still report eth0 to have a correct ip and all -reboot -the eth0 interface won't work anymore. network manager doesn't setup it correctly and it's missing an ip adress and i can't access network anymore -opening the np-applet menu you will see a new entry "modem connection" which will let you connect just like with pon dsl-provider. -trying to connect trough the modem connection will let you access again to internet trough the pppoe connection but still eth0 doesn't have an ip adress so network is unreachable. plus it isn't listed anymore in the np-applet connection list and there is no way to force it to connect: even manual configuration (default is roaming mode) with dhcp won't work: everytime i will try to force a reconfiguration by pressing the check near the cable connection will always bring up the configuration of the connection and it won't try anymore to connect to it. so the situation is now: no way to connect to local network anymore just internet, even rebooting the computer various times didn't bring the local network to be connectable (eth0 with no ip adress) how to fix the unconnectable situation (but this isn't a fix as pppoe connections can't be done in this way): -go to /etc/ppp and remove all newly created files by pppoeconf -reboot -the network will work again as before but the entry "modem connection" will still be in np-applet -- configuring a pppoe connection with pppoeconf locks local network functionality https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/157993 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
