Hallo Debian! Sorry for answering my own massage. But yesterday I managed to connect to my dsl-provider. But today linux hangs on boot-up.
I have this in /etc/ppp/ppp_on_boot ,----[ ppp_on_boot ] | ###!/bin/sh | # | # Rename this file to ppp_on_boot and pppd will be fired up as | # soon as the system comes up, connecting to `provider'. | # | # If you also make this file executable, and replace the first line | # with just "#!/bin/sh", the commands below will be executed instead. | # | | # The location of the ppp daemon itself (shouldn't need to be changed) | PPPD=/usr/sbin/pppd | | # The default provider to connect to | $PPPD call dsl-provider | | # Additional connections, which would just use settings from | # /etc/ppp/options.<tty> | #$PPPD ttyS0 | #$PPPD ttyS1 | #$PPPD ttyS2 | #$PPPD ttyS3 `---- It hangs with this message: Cannot determine ethernet address for proxy ARP local IP address 192.42.172.1 remote IP address 10.112.112.112 The local IP comes from /etc/hosts. But the message is the same, when I erase the entry in /etc/hosts. When I start with pppd pty "pppoe -I eth0" I get this errormessage: pppd: The remote system is required to authenticate itself pppd: but I couldn't find any suitable secret (password) for it to use to do so.pppd: (None of the available passwords would let it use an IP address.) I am very confused. Can anyone give me a hint, how to setup DSL? Thanks! juh > I set up pppoe as written in README.Debian.
