Todo

You have to:

  • create a firewall (not included)
  • configure the ADSL modem
  • setting a password on the ADSL modem
  • modifying the loginnaam in the xs4all peer file

The ADSL modem is reconfigured to PPTP PPPoA mode.

Restore this configuration file, and change the Administrator password

/etc/ppp/peers/xs4all

create this as a file named /etc/ppp/peers/xs4all

user loginnaam@xs4all.nl
ipv6 ,
noipdefault
defaultroute
persist
maxfail 0
noproxyarp
pty "/usr/sbin/pptp 10.0.0.138 --nolaunchpppd"

/etc/network/interfaces

Add this to the /etc/network/interfaces file:

auto pppoa
iface pppoa inet ppp
      provider xs4all

And add this as well, but replace eth1 with the interface that has the ADSL modem connected to it.

auto eth1
iface eth1 inet static
        address 10.0.0.10
        netmask 255.255.255.0
        up ifconfig $IFACE -multicast
