How should I do to > fix this problem? If you're not manually loading netgraph.ko with kldload, then you need to make sure you've got *all* of the required netgraph modules compiled into your kernel. (There is a long-outstanding bug with auto-loading kernel modules that causes this problem.) In my kernel, which does PPPoE, I've got the following netgraph modules compiled in: options NETGRAPH options NETGRAPH_SOCKET options NETGRAPH_ETHER options NETGRAPH_PPPOE Once you recompile your kernel with all of these, then you won't see this error anymore when trying to use PPPoE. -- Matt Emmerton To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
