This raises a question -- *grin* ... on the computer with the internal PCI ADSL modem, the modem shows up as nas0 === do you yet have a ppp device? I know that with *my* pppd implmentation, I have an ethernet connection (eth0) which is physically connected to my DSL modem. My next step is to start the pppoe tunnel. In my case I use pppd 2.4.1d which has pppoe built into it, and my /etc/ppp/options file contains the line: plugin rp-pppoe.so I start pppd with pppd eth0 in your friends case would pppd nas0 do anything? This creates the ppp interface, and handles the connection negotiation, including pap/chap and IP address assignment. Roaring Penguin has a great package which does the job well too .. but I don't use the tool myself. Has your friend gone through this startup process? -- My understanding is that in any case with pppoe .. the tcp/ip tunnel ends up at pppx device, for ethernet connected, usb connected and internal dsl modems ... no matter what the physical device is (nas0 eth0 whathaveyou) Does anyone have a clue by four to whack me with on this???
