Hi folks,

BLFS 6.1
Broadband connection via ADSL modem/router to ethernet card

I have following packages including their necessary dependencies installed

RP-PPPoE-3.5
PPP-2.4.3
WvDial-1.54.0

Do I need to install Ethereal-0.10.12 ?

Apart to configure/setup following files
/etc/ppp/pppoe.conf
/etc/ppp/firewall-standalone
/etc/resolv.conf
/etc/ppp/pap-secrets,

Following files will not be necessary;
/etc/ppp/firewall-masq
/etc/ppp/pppoe-server-options
/etc/ppp/chap-secrets

What other files need to be included

Please advise. TIA

Not sure where you're getting ethereal as a dependency from, but that's only necessary if you want to sniff your network packets.

Hi kjordan,

I still could not get the broadband connected.

Completed :- Part IV. Connecting to a Network
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs...her.html#pppoe

Ran "adsl-setup" to fill in all data.

On booting up LFS 6.1 following warning popup;
...
Bringing up the eth0 interface .....
sed: -e expression #1, char 8: unknown option to 's' the SERVICE variable was not set, or the specified serverice cannot be executed.

Ran
# adsl-start
............ TIMED OUT

Any suggestion. TIA
