Hi,
I have been trying to connect pacenet from Ubuntu for a week but hadn't found any success. I goggled on this stuff and have tried all the things told but yet always the chap authentication fails.
The link from which i took help is: http://db.glug-bom.org/wiki/index.php/Broadband_Pacenet
http://db.glug-bom.org/wiki/index.php/Broadband_PacenetI have generated encrypted password and used it. But i was unable to understand how to "Setup your LAN card using your preferred GUI or terminal utility. I used the GUI utility *System > Administration > Networking*. Enter your private IP address, net mask and gateway".
On giving command sudo pppoe-discovery , it shows me pacenet as the only Access-Concentrator.
Can anyone plz help me out? because right now i am doing programming on windows and it is frustrating as it is slows and not that much friendly.
Thanks in advance,
Note: I can put output of my all files that are required but as this is first mail so i am just withholding until i get someone who has been running pacenet on Ubuntu.

Technically it would be interesting and challenging to get this issue resolved within Ubuntu, otherwise a long lasting solution would be to ask the ISP to provide a router box so that any linux distro can be setup on that without going through these painful setups every time you upgrade your distro or the ISP decides to make changes in their setups. You can even share this connection with many comps. Ask your ISP to recommend the router box to avoid any compatibility issues.
