Haines -- You are not here reporting any problem with your configuration. Everything you list below is as it should be with PPPoE. In particular, your routing table does not list eth0 because you have (and need have) no routes that use it; it isn't even a configured interface (that is, no IP ad

For the default behavior of a program to happen on a file, you feed the program the file name only. The unzip -v will allow you to view the zip file's contents but will not extract files. I wouldn't use the -d option either since zip's default when extracting files is to createsubdirectories. Wh
