I have a Bering 1.2 setup using pppoa which uses ppp0 as its external
device.
I would dearly like to have a ppp1 and ppp2 device for dialin and other
tasks, can someone (Jacques?) please help. I have declared interfaces like
this
auto ppp0
iface ppp0 inet ppp
pre-up mount none /proc/bus/usb
You have the auto statement in front of ppp1. So the sequence
auto ppp1
iface ppp1 inet ppp
provider dialin
is executed at boot time but probably fails for some reason (pppd script,
chat/pap file or whatever)
So when you type ifup ppp1 from console you get the message
ifup: interface
