Re: How is 'pppd' launched while starting

[Guo Jiahua <gjhdgm@gmail.com>]

Hi, everyone,
My problem is solved, by editing '/etc/network/interfaces', and insert a
command:

iface ethX inet manual
        pre-up /bin/ip link set $IFACE address XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX

Thanks for all of you for your help, especially Andrei Popescu,
Camaleón, and Osamu Aoki.
