[Bug 46260] Re: pppoe broken in dapper
Well, my previous comment turned out to be a result of a misconfiguration, rather than a bug. I had to put the following line in my /etc/ppp/peers/dsl-provider: plugin rp-pppoe.so rp_pppoe_service the_service_name eth0 NOTE: actually, it was only the rp_pppoe_service ... part that was necessary to be inserted. Afterwards, I was able to connect to the ISP at wish, without any problems. -- pppoe broken in dapper https://launchpad.net/bugs/46260 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 46260] Re: pppoe broken in dapper
I have experienced exactly the same problem as David, and I *suggest* that it could be somehow connected with the absence of an option equivalent to SERVICENAME=xxx in rp-pppoe. I've got this idea while triggering my connection numerous times with pon dsl-provider -d, and during these attepmts I have noticed that the service name in PADS: Service-name: 'XXX' (as visible in the log) has been predominantly LAN (connection *failed*), a few times empty (i.e. ' '; connection *failed* again), and only two times until now it has been equivalent to the service name required by the ISP in order to connect (connection *successful*). Therefore I wonder if there is a way to specify the service name explicitly somewhere in the configuration files to test my hypothesis. Or could this be interpreted as a misconfiguration of the ISP infrastructure?

[Bug 46260] Re: pppoe broken in dapper
- running an HP lappie with D-link pcmcia ethernet card recognized as eth0 - ran pppoeconf ok from root -first time internet connection worked and thought all was fine - after computer re-booted, no internet connection - ran pon dsl-provider, no internet - ran plog and got: Plugin roe.so loaded. pppd 2.4.4b1 started by root, uid 0 PPP session is 3182 Using interface ppp1 Connect: ppp1 eth0 PAP authentication failed - repeatedly used pon and poff dsl-provider to toggle the connection - interface changed from ppp1 to ppp2 to ppp3 to ppp4 (not sequentially, though). I have only one ethernet installed (the d-link) - finally, internet connection was established when interface toggled to ppp0, which seems to match with the same number designation for my ethernet: PPP session is 3234 Using interface ppp0 Connect: ppp0 eth0 PAP authentication succeeded My internet connection CONSISTENTLY works when ppp0 eth0. Under this situation, PAP authentication always succeeds. Is there a way to force Ubuntu Dapper to use only ppp0? I think this would solve my problem. Furthermore, I tried the fixes found on https://help.ubuntu.com/commuunity/adslpppoe involved changing interfaces file under /etc/network added lines as was suggested. still a no-go. so.any ideas? Presently, my interfaces file reads as follows: auto lo iface lo inet loopback auto eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcp pre-up /sbin/ifconfig eth0 up # line maintained by pppoeconf auto eth1 iface eth1 inet dhcp auto eth2 iface eth2 inet dhcp auto ath0 iface ath0 inet dhcp auto wlan0 iface wlan0 inet dhcp auto dsl-provider iface dsl-provider inet ppp provider dsl-provider pre-up /sbin/ifconfig eth0 up # line maintained by pppoeconf perhaps someone can help me...my only ethernet card is eth0. do i need lines like auto eth1 and auto ath0 and auto wlan0? Are these lines buggering my connection? Also, should my iface eth0 inet dhcp line read iface eth0 inet manual, and if so, what's the diff? I have given this Ubuntu thing one more week, after which I will return to (egads) windows. All I need is a bloody INTERNET connection! -- pppoe broken in dapper https://launchpad.net/bugs/46260 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
