Hi,
I have found a problem about PPPoE parameter in /etc/rc.network.
When setting the following lines in /etc/rc.conf, pppoe server does not
work well. The string "service-pppoe" is an entry in
/etc/ppp/ppp.conf for PPPoE server.
pppoed_enable="YES" # Run the PPP over Ethernet daemon.
pppoed_provider="service-pppoe" # Provider and ppp(8) config file entry.
pppoed_interface="fxp0" # The interface that pppoed runs on.
In /etc/rc.network, 'pppoed_provider' is passed into pppoe with -p
option. After booting os, pppoe arguments are as follows:
pppoed ... -p service-pppoe fxp0
But this option does not work. We should use -l instead of -p like
this:
pppoed ... -l service-pppoe fxp0
To use -l, I think the line 822 in /etc/rc.network should be modified.
< 822 pppoed_flags="${pppoed_flags} -p ${pppoed_provider}"
> 822 pppoed_flags="${pppoed_flags} -l ${pppoed_provider}"
After modifying the above line, pppoed server works well.
But is this modification correct?
