[RP-PPPoE] rp-pppoe.so in kernel mode

[Palasamudram, Chaitra (NSN - IN/Bangalore)]

Hi Adrian

Thanks. 

I was using user space pppoe on client side in the following way with pppd.
In the pppd options file I used to give the following option :
/etc/ppp/options :
pty 'pppoe -I eth3' 

Could you also, let me know how this pppd options file should look if I want to use kernel mode plugin. 

Thanks in advance for reply. 


Regards
Chaitra

Hi,

You must compile rp-pppoe  with --enable-plugin argument to configure.
After that you start pppoe-server with -k option.
Be careful with configure that is missing some includes in some tests for 
pppoe kernel support. I've added 2 in6.h headers in 2 parts of rp-pppoe 
sources. I've submitted this issue to the developers and they told me that 
they added missing header, buy I don't know if they released a new version.

For your security check confog.log after you run configure and search for 
"kernel" and check if the compiled test program successed or not.


Best regards,
Adrian
