Package: network-manager
Version: 0.6.6-3
Severity: normal

I have set up a pppoe connection to my ISP using pppoeconf on a machine
directly connected to the DSL modem.

The connection is established properly during the boot process, but only lasts
for a couple of seconds: As soon as network-manager has established his own
connection, I am (according to my ISP) still connected, but cannot actually
reach any server, neither by it's FQDN, nor via it's IP.

When network-manager has established his connection, it says:
"Wired network connection with a self-assigned address"

According to /sbin/ifconfig, the devices ppp0 and eth0 are still up and
assigned with the correct IPs.

I worked around the issue by rigorously deactivating network-manager:
# update-rc.d -f network-manager remove

Despite this probably being a bug, I am welcome to suggestions or pointers
(via e-mail) to documentation on how to "properly" set up a pppoe connection
with lenny and perhaps network-manager.
pppoeconf is basically the only way I know of.
