Re: Starting pppoe
The rcX.d directories are the run level directories. The rc2.d is the
Debian default at boot. If you haven't changed anything since your install,
then when you boot Debian is using rc2.d.
I am not familiar with rp-pppoe, and I have not looked at my rc2.d since I
worked with xdm,but:
The SXX<daemon (or program)> is initiation schedule. If you look at the SXX
numbers they are sequential. i.e. S99xdm starts xdm later in the sequence.
If rp-pppoe needs pppd to run, then add 1 the the ppp SXX value and it will
put itself right after ppp at initiation. If it replaces pppd then remove
SXXppp and use the SXX value for ppp

Subject: Starting pppoe
I installed rp-pppoe and it works like a champ. The documentation states to
have it start at boot time that a line should be added to the end of
/etc/rc.d/rc.local.
Well my GNU/Linux installation doesn't have an rc.d directory; just a bunch
of directories named rc0.d, rc1.d, rc2.d, etc. I'm assuming the scripts in
these directories run as the system is passing through the various boot
states. So do I simply copy the adsl-start script to one of these
directories and proceed the name with Sxx?
If so, which is the correct rcx.d to put it in and what do I number it?
Thanks!
