Changes to floppyfw-2.0.9-1680K-pppoe.img image for use with linecontrol server and ppp
(modem / ISDN).

Changes you have to make in /config:

Change OUTSIDE_DEV variable
OUTSIDE_DEV=ppp0

Comment out the following lines
#OUTSIDE_NETMASK=
#OUTSIDE_NETWORK=
#OUTSIDE_BROADCAST=

Set user name and password for your dial up account:
USER_IDENT=<my_user_name>
USER_PASSWORD=<my_password>

Change INSIDE_DEV variable
INSIDE_DEV=eth0

Setup your network parameters
INSIDE_IP=192.168.1.1
INSIDE_NETWORK=192.168.1.0
INSIDE_NETMASK=255.255.255.0
INSIDE_BROADCAST=192.168.1.255

You must set name servers. Use your ISP's name servers.
NAME_SERVER_IP1=<your_isp_primary_dns>
NAME_SERVER_IP2=<your_isp_secondary_dns>

It may be useful to fill in the following
HOSTNAME=<name of your floppyfw box>
DOMAIN=<your isp's domain>

I enabled DNS caching on my server
DNSMASQ=y


I've included a replacement /packages/ppp-up.ini file
The only modification required is to set your ISP telephone number

Set ISP telephone number:
TELEPHONE=<your_isp_telephone_number>

For more info see howto-ppp-dialup.txt and firewall+PPP.txt

Open /packages/linesrv.ini and make necessary changes.
The default file should work unless your ip is not 192.168.1.1
or you are using something other than just plain ppp dialup.
