Hi, I just installed it, and I believe the kernel is 2.2.16
I couldn't find a pppoe client in the the install or contribution package. Can anyone recommend a pppoe client that works well under my kernel version and slackware 7.1?
Also, I have 2 NICs. I did netconf for eth0, which I want to use as my internal interface for my lan. But, I don't want to configure eth1, since it will be the external interface through an ADSL connection. Is there someway I can bring it up, without doing "ifconfig eth1 up" all the time? I came from 2 different distros, mandrake and debian. In debian, I just added the line "eth1 up" on one of the ppp files. In debian there was /etc/network/interfaces, which I could edit to bring up my eth0 interface along with ipaddress and netmask. In Slackware what file does netconfg write to? Pls excuse me, I'm just new and confused. :confused:
