Hello, I am new in the forum and environment linux, an immense contribution, Many Graces, for your good impulses for the improvement of this great field.

I walk finding the way of connecting the machine to Internet since today I deal a seminar of computer safety,
We come being employed the distribution BackTrack at which like that I have found the following difficulty.

I have a hanging work now in vacations and have not managed to begin.

excuse me, but I have searched everywhere and do not find the form.

My connection: Type pppoe Modem: Ethernet
Use: the command pppoe-setup
I assign direction the card of network: ifconfig eth0 x.x.x.x up
I assign the door of link:
route add default gw x.x.x.x

After forming Typing all the information,
I execute pppoe-start but it is conquered the time of attempt for the connection.

Gentlemen, I check the corresponding files, which store user's name, password, DNS. Everything is like well it must be.

The interfaz eth0 is recognized.

In a moment I connected from the LiveCD, now not of the LiveCD it works.

Estimated main. Immense gratefulnesses for whom they could help me.

A Great Greeting.
Successes and Congratulations.

Finally!!!
Thank you, I Am in Colombia, so of this form today I find a solution. Thanks to Gideon26 in Ubuntu's forum. [URL = " http: // ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php? T=426944 "] In his(her,your) Post [/URL] has Written a small tutorial that has served for the distribution BackTrack that today I use doing a few modifications in this one.

Configuration Internet BackTrack connection pppoe:

1. To assign IP to the Plate of Network: ifconfig ethX x.x.x.x
2. To unload the Plugin: rp-pppoe-3.8.tar.gz 3. To install the Plugin:
4. * tar-zxvf rp-pppoe-3.8.tar.gz 4.
5. * CD rp-pppoe-3.8 5.
6. * ./go
7. To deposit all the needed information given by the ISP.
6. To create a file with the name adsl in the directory /etc/ppp/peers and to stick in him the following text:

# example configuration for the kernel space PPP over Ethernet driver
#
# See the manual page pppd( for information on all the options.

# MUST CHANGE: replace myusername@realm with the PPP login name given to
# your by your provider.
# There should be a matching entry with the password in /etc/ppp/pap-secrets
# and/or /etc/ppp/chap-secrets.
user "UsuarioAsignadoPorISP"

# Load the PPPoE plugin.
plugin rp-pppoe.so

# Ethernet interface to which the modem is connected.
ethX

# Assumes that your IP address is allocated dynamically by the ISP.
noipdefault
# Try to get the name server addresses from the ISP.
usepeerdns
# Use this connection as the default route.
defaultroute

# Makes pppd "dial again" when the connection is lost.
persist

# Do not ask the remote to authenticate.
noauth

IT NOTICES: in the parameter user the Internet user goes, ej: "mycount@sky-chrg", and in the ethX X it is equivalent to the value of the interfaz of the Plate of network. Do not forget to guard and go out.

7. # pppd call adsl... I list Connection !!!

Well. But I have the following doubt, for which if someone can help me to resolve I it am grateful enormously:

When I restart the machine I have to do the same procedure, What I do in order that when the machine loads, immediately she remains connected. I do not deal why it is necessary to do again the whole procedure when all the information remains stored in /etc/ppp/pppoe.conf, /etc/resolv.conf, /etc/ppp/pap-secrets, and, /etc/ppp/chap-secrets

Good time and Congratulations!
