Description Kobboi 2009-02-10 22:38:18 UTC 
I can only be short about this: it would be nice if pppoe-server, being a system service, would have an initscript installed with the package.

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Peter Alfredsen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-02-11 02:32:38 UTC 
Could you provide the package name this executable belongs to? I don't ahve it installed.
Comment 2 Kobboi 2009-02-11 10:44:31 UTC 
The package pppoe-server belongs to is net-dialup/rp-pppoe. As an extra requirement, it should be possible to run pppoe-servers on different interfaces, e.g. /etc/init.d/pppoe-server.eth0 start && /etc/init.d/pppoe-server.eth1 start (with the network interfaces possibly renamed and possibly containing VLAN stuff, e.g. myintf.3000)
Comment 3 Alin Năstac (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-02-18 20:16:23 UTC 
Do you have such script?

IMO could have multiple instances, but I don't think it would be wise to connect the script name with the interface. Most folks would need only one instance, therefore a /etc/init.d/pppoe (the only script that will be installed by the ebuild) would do.

If you need an example, see the init script of net-proxy/privoxy.
Comment 4 Alin Năstac (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-02-18 20:23:01 UTC 
FYI: pppoe-server man page says that you are allowed to pass multiple -I arguments on the command line.
