I have used suggestion (a) and ADSL is setup but unable to point to eth1 as it's inactive due to the DHCP fail during boot time. Only eth0 (pointing to the switch is active). Sorry, don't understand the 'rr-pppoe'? but in rc.conf, the START_ADSL is set to yes. I realised that under 2.4.0, the ppp is missing when using ifconfig but it's there if I boot up in 2.2.18? am I right to assume that the ppp is not compiled into 2.4.0? I tried again this morning using 2.2.18 (root) and manual up the eth1 (via ifconfig eth1 up), I can connect to the internet even if I switched to user mode, but NO CONTROL on the Kinternet icon and unable to disconnect (can only do ifconfig eth1 down in root). More help on how to make the eth1 alive (waiting for DHCP allocation from the ISP) will be appreciated. Dennis/sg
option a) I use yast2 adsl setup option b) rr-pppoe install via yast then as root run adsl-setup also in yast turn START_ADSL=yes so your machine connects as it boots
