I try to configure the pppoe on my computer..And after 1 hours, I discover my problem. When you create the file /etc/ppp/ppp.conf you need to put at least 1 space after the name of the provider in the configuration parameter for this provider to have a working script. Example: ( Default and set are not in the same column. This is the good way) default: # or name_of_service_provider set device PPPoE:xl1 # replace xl1 with your ethernet device set mru 1492 set mtu 1492 set authname YOURLOGINNAME Please put this information on the handbook. Other think, on my Freebsd4.2, by default in the /etc/default/rc.conf nat is activated, ppp_nat="YES" so you don't need to add nat enable yes # if you want to enable nat for your local net on your /etc/ppp/ppp.conf Thanks Jean-Richard Charron >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
