Description Joerg Schaible 2003-10-01 16:37:57 UTC 
The init.d scripts of both packages manipulate /etc/resolv.conf in an incompatible way. 
rp-pppoe removes any existing file and creates a symlink to /etc/ppp/resolv.conf if the 
provider provides the nameservers dynamically. The domainname script will modify 
/etc/resolv.conf and remove the symlink. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. rc-update add domainname 
2. rc-update add rp-pppoe 
3. reboot 
Actual Results:  
Depending on your configuration and the current dependency order of the init scripts 
you might ot be able to connect to the internet! 

Expected Results:  
rp-pppoe should be executed always after domainname 

patch: 
add a depenceny to /etc/init.d/rp-pppoe: 
 
	depend() { 
		need net 
		after domainname 
	}
