Hi, all, > My bad, my apologies. It was the userspace code you dropped then, which > does NOT require the kernel options? I was considering doing that, but I kept the userspace code. The reason is that on some platforms, such as uclinux on a processor without an MMU, the dlopen() system call is not implemented, so there's no way to use a plugin with pppd. One user asked me to keep the userspace code, so I did. But you are correct in that 99.99% of Linux users will not need to download rp-pppoe if all they want to do is connect to the Internet using a PPPoE client. Regards, Dianne.
