Bug Description
After an upgrade to Hardy, pppoe (configured with pppoeconf) no longer connects at boot. A connection can be made with the pon command line command, or via the DSL menu item in network manager.
Should this work? Should we be using the GUI in Network Settings instead? That didn't seem to work either, though I didn't see any error message.

I have this problem on 8.10 beta (kubuntu). Pppoe connection doesn't start automatically at boot.
On 8.04 it mostly works. Sometimes when not, it would't start at all. Those times pppoeconf complained about not founding pppoe access concentrator.
I compared some files of folders /etc/ppp and /etc/network in order to find possible differences between 8.04 and 8.10. Everything else looked similar but one difference in files /etc/ppp/ peers/dsl- provider; in 8.10 two last lines had swapped places compared to 8.04. But changing that didn't make any difference.
[url]https:/ /help.ubuntu. com/community/ ADSLPPPoE# Boot issues[/url] didn't help either (modifying /etc/network/ interfaces, that is).
