Can anyone of you out there show me how to configure
my Red Hat and Fedora Core on connecting by using
PPPoE ? I can dial to my ISP from Windows but with Red
Hat and Fedora Core, I was having problem. Please
refer to the attachment for my configurations under
Windows.
First of all, I am not a PPPoE guru!
Do you have an Ethernet or USB connection? I guess you'd need to say if you want help.
Are you running rp-pppoe (Roaring Penguin)? It is on the Fedora CDs, I think. If so, there is an adsl-setup command which is meant to do things for you.
adsl-setup
Answer all of the questions. Remember that eth0 is your first ethernet card, do you have more than one? Do you know which one is which? This is important for you to get the connection properly functioning. Next, make sure you answer the last question concerning bringing up ppp0 at boot time with a "yes". Assuming that you want to do that. ^_^
