does not recognize access concentrator pppoe on eth0

[Hollman Enciso]

trying to form my connection pppoe by means of pppoeconfig, identifies to me that I have 1 Ethernet device eth0, but at the time of the search of a concentrator of PPPoE access in eth0 does not advance of the 100%

[Fethi DILMI (addictcook)]

try this before
sudo pppoeconf -eth0

then tell us.

Hi, I'm having exactly the same problem: pppoeconf stalls when it finds a network address concentrator.

pppoeconf calls in background "pppoe-discovery -A -I eth1" and it's pppoe-discovery who is actually stalling.

I'm encountering this when I'm using 9.10 livecd.

Marking as confirmed because it affects multiple users.

Was this bug repaired? Cause I'm having the same problem with pppoeconf. It gives a segmentation fault when is searching for network address concentrator and stops at 6%. It's the same bug...
