pppoeconf reversal?

[cgl72]

Hi
When I first installed my Bubba, I tried to use it for PPPOE. I used the method descirbed by Made here
http://forum.excito.net/viewtopic.php?f ... conf#p5527

I did not get it to work and abandoned. I have been running my network normally with Bubba routing and using dhcp on the wan from my modem/router.

I have noticed that I get a string of errors in my logs due to the fact my Bubba is trying to initiate PPPOE and cannot. It then defaults back to normal use. Should I be bothered by this? I like a clean log, maybe the perfectionist in me...

Can I reverse the changes due to pppoeconf? Would it be enough to:
- edit /etc/network/firewall.conf , change all ppp0 to eth0

Thanks,
Christian

here is my /etc/network/interfaces:

Code: Select all

bubba:/etc/network# cat interfaces 
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

iface eth1 inet static
	netmask 255.255.255.0
	address 192.168.10.1

iface eth0 inet dhcp


auto dsl-provider
iface dsl-provider inet ppp
pre-up /sbin/ifconfig eth0 up # line maintained by pppoeconf
provider dsl-provider

auto eth0

I was wondering if I could simply comment out the lines starting with "auto dsl-provider" through "provider dsl-provider"? Should I keep the last line "auto eth0"?

Thanks
Christian

I think that should do the job for you. Here's mine

/etc/network$ cat interfaces
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

iface eth1 inet static
netmask 255.255.255.0
address 192.168.0.1

iface eth0 inet dhcp

Thanks Asparak
You gave me the confidence I needed to make the change and it worked like a charm.
