I am using fedora core 1 with the newest 2.6.4 kernel, built by myself. I am using the GUI tool of redhat-config-network to add an ppp0 device for ADSL,there was a wizard pop out for my configuration. So following the steps of the wizard, I named the ISP as CNC, and then entered the user name and password for the virtual dial of ADSL. After this, I activated the device. I found I got an IP from ISP, but I cannot ping any host. eg, ping www.yahoo.com, I got an "unkown host " returned. and there is nothing in /etc/resolve file. I try to locate the problem. I found when I add the ppp0 via the GUI tool. All the config file of this ppp0 device have been named as conifg-CNC. By this way, if I use "ifup ppp0", fedora will give me an error of "missing ppp0 config file". Then I looked into the property of the ppp0 device using the GUI tool. There found an alias item, which is CNC by the way. I renamed it as ppp0 and save. I found the config-CNC files had been renamed as config-ppp0. And then reactivated the device, all the network problem were gone!!! So I figure it as a potential bug of redhat-config-network! Tony Liu 2004-04-05 China,P.R
