Hi, � I�ve set up a machine with woody using an ethernet card and now that particular machine will be moved to a location with only dialup access.� I�ve removed the NIC and I�ve got PPP working fine using an internal modem.� I�d like to know how to properly transition the setup from Ethernet to PPP only.� My thoughts are these 1) Comment out the �eth0� stanza in /etc/network/interfaces and 2) Comment out �ee100pro� in /etc/modules or 3) Optionally recompile kernel to remove extraneous bits (currently stock kernel):� can I remove support for Ethernet cards but keep support for TCP/IP?� I�m thinking that perhaps I�d want to keep support for NICs anyway for future maintenance. � Are there any other steps I need to perform to transition from ethernet to dialup only on this machine? � Thanks! � Drew [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
