I actually got PPPoE to come up on the BSD box once about a month ago and I have not been able to duplicate it since. Is PPPoE dpenedent on using the ethernet card that the service provider gave you or can you use any NIC as long as ppp.conf knows which one to use? regarding the service field in "set device:PPPoE:nic:service" what exactly is a service and what are the options available for the service field? many thanx Adam On Fri, 23 Jun 2000, Dany Cayouette wrote: Did you ever get PPPoE running on that circuit before? (like using a PPPoE on win95 machine). Don't look into PPP... you are not getting at that stage. You PC sends a PADI packet and you should see a PADO from your provider. You don't seem to be getting one. One possible thing is that you have to specify a Service-Name other than -NULL-. Check with your service provider... Or another possibility is that your 'assume DSL' circuit is not even activated properly!! cheers, dany Adam Blake wrote: > I have tried all of your suggestions regarding my ppp.conf file > and I am still having the same problems.
