CHAPTER 8 GETTING EVERYTHING UP AND RUNNING 97 7. If your ISP uses PPPoE, you ll need to install the br2684ctl_20040226-1_i386.deb file as well: sudo dpkg i br2684ctl_20040226-1_i386.deb 8. Now you must add your login details to the files pap-secrets and chap-secrets. The following will open both files in Gedit on two separate tabs: sudo gedit /etc/ppp/pap-secrets /etc/ppp/chap-secrets 9. In both files, add the following line to the bottom: “username” * “password” Replace username and password with your ISP login details. For example, my username for my ISP is keir.thomas@btbroadband.com. My ISP doesn t use passwords, so I simply typed “” in the password area. If you find this doesn t work when you test this connection, try repeating this step and typing any word between the password quotation marks; it doesn t matter what you type. 10. Save each file, and then exit Gedit. 11. Type the following to create the speedtch configuration file and edit it with Gedit: sudo gedit /etc/ppp/peers/speedtch 12. Add the following lines: noipdefault defaultroute user ‘username’ noauth updetach usepeerdns plugin rp-pppoe.so nas0 VPI.VCI Replace username with your ISP username, and replace VPI.VCI with your VPI and VCI settings, separated by a period. For example, because I live in the United Kingdom, I typed 0.38. Your ISP s technical support line will be able to supply these values. (Note that VPI/VCI values are sometimes referred to as VP/VC.) 13. Save the file. 14. Type the following at the GNOME Terminal command-line prompt: sudo rm -f /etc/resolv.conf sudo ln -s /etc/ppp/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf 15. Next, you need to ensure certain modules load during boot. Load the modules file into Gedit: sudo gedit /etc/modules
