Hi all,
still battling away trying to get my PPPoE working properly. I get the
message below everytime I try to connect. I don't really understand what it
means and I am praying that someone can tell me.

Starting ppp as "root"Error: iface_inAdd: ioctl(SIOCAIFADDR): 10.0.0.1: File
exists
Warning: set ifaddr: Failed 4

The releavant files are as above. I cannot for the life of me work out why
this is being such a problem. When I had a ISDN connection I never really
suffered from these problems albeit that I used to establish the connection
manually :-)
