A small problem with pppoe - pofkezas - 2004-07-13
I have Fedora Core 2 installed. I have pppoe set and running but sometimes when I cold boot into FC2, pppoe just wont start, although I see the lights on modem and NIC blinking. When I type /usr/sbin/adsl-status it says
Code:
adsl-status: Link is down (can't read pppoe PID file /var/run/pppoe-adsl.pid.pppoe)to fix it, it just takes to reboot but it is annoying to reboot every time I cold boot into my system. Maybe anyone can come up with some kind of solution.
P.S. I tried google'ing but could come up how to format my search o_O

Could you post the logs (/var/log/messages, etc.) after you try to establish the link? The message you get looks quite normal to me as you don't have the daemon running it hasn't created a PID-file yet.
