We're running RHEL v4 on PowerEdge servers. The DRAC has been
disabled, but the PPP interface still shows up on the server. It's
causing issues with our Networker server. Where is the config for the
PPP interface and is there an easy way to remove it?

thanks, i'll give that a shot.

with our Networker server. Where is the config for the PPP interface and
is there an easy way to remove it?

i did this, but the ppp0 interface doesn't show up under the
networking utility. this is why i'm confused. it shows up when running
ifconfig at shell, but it's not under /sysconfig/networking/* nor is
it in the neat utility.

this is why i assume it is the dell drac cardbut i've disabled that in bios.

any other ideas?

the problem is lagato networker trys to resolve it. it shows up in the
error logs all the time.

running ifconfig produces the following:

ppp0 Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol
inet addr:192.168.234.235 P-t-P:192.168.234.236 Mask:255.255.255.255

RX bytes:75102 (73.3 KiB) TX bytes:139542 (136.2 KiB)

even tho i have disabled the card via its bios, never configured a ppp
interface on the server, have removed racvnc daemon from starting at
boot and stopped the service.

so, i guess my question is, where is the ppp0 coming from, then?

If you disable the card in bios itself how can you see this in network

utility or you sever box. As well being shown in ifconfig status it will
not give impact on your server.

Cool

fixed. racser, racsrvc and racvnc daemons must all be stopped; and
