Hello all, I wanted to propose to the speedtouch developers a little improvement in the connection script, in the form of a patch. What i am proposing is extending the configuration file to include 3 more entries, namely:
* CONN_MODE: the connection mode, pppoe/pppoa * VPI * VCI When the speedtouch-start script is called from hotplug system then the network interface, in case of PPPoE connections, should be brought up, to allow programs like pppoe-conf work with it as a perfectly normal ethernet interface. I wanted to use the opportunity to ask the following, is it true that when pppoa3 is called and creates the tap0 interface it outputs to stdout the created interface? If so then there's a minor alteration on my patch so that the vnet variable points to the actually created interface, to avoid problems with multiple tap interfaces. Thank you for your time, Tiago Cogumbreiro -- Binary/unsupported file stripped by Listar -- -- Type: text/x-patch -- File: pppoe.patch Liste de diffusion modem ALCATEL SpeedTouch USB Pour se désinscrire : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
