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. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.1 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-2-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages network-manager depends on: ii adduser 3.110 add and remove users and groups ii dbus 1.2.1-5 simple interprocess messaging syst ii dhcdbd 3.0-5 D-Bus interface to the ISC DHCP cl ii hal 0.5.11-8 Hardware Abstraction Layer ii ifupdown 0.6.8+nmu1 high level tools to configure netw ii iproute 20080725-2 networking and traffic control too ii libc6 2.7-18 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libdbus-1-3 1.2.1-5 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.76-1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libgcrypt11 1.4.1-1 LGPL Crypto library - runtime libr ii libglib2.0-0 2.16.6-1+lenny1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgpg-error0 1.4-2 library for common error values an ii libhal1 0.5.11-8 Hardware Abstraction Layer - share ii libiw29 29-1.1 Wireless tools - library ii libnl1 1.1-2 library for dealing with netlink s ii libnm-util0 0.6.6-3 network management framework (shar ii lsb-base 3.2-20 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip ii wpasupplicant 0.6.4-3 Client support for WPA and WPA2 (I Versions of packages network-manager recommends: ii network-manager-gnome 0.6.6-4 network management framework (GNOM network-manager suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
