History: I have followed and executed all directions stated in Chapter 16.4 of the Handbook that came with the 4.0 package. I added the specified entries to the Kernal Configuration file. I have compiled the kernal. I have set up the ppp.conf file per the handbook. The only changes made were-- default:snet.net (name of my service provider) set device PPPoE:dc0 I did insert my user-id and password into the authname and authkey I have set up the rc.conf file per the handbook. Under ppp_profile I again entered my service provider: ppp_profile="snet.net" When under root, I execute: ppp -dedicated + Enter I get the following message: Working in dedicated mode Using interface:tun0 Warning:No default entry found in config file. ADSL PPPoE will not function. What is missing? What else needs to be configured? Any suggestions would be very much appreciated. I have called up my ISP's tech support, but as I'm sure you can imagine, they don't get involved with anything but Windows. Also, I have seen other poeple recently post regarding their mouse being disabled when they return from the bash shell in another console. I too am getting this after running the "ppp -dedicated" command in a bash shell and then returning to my KDE desktop on another console. I then have to execute "halt" and reboot in order to get my mouse working again. Thank you for your time and consideration.
