Yes, I did.  The same error comes up.  I see the script but cannot understand 
why only eth0 counts as a net iface.  It may be worth noting that I do not 
have configured ppp0 through /etc/conf.d/net.  Somehow kppp picks it up and 
runs fine.  Could this have something to do with it?

Also, under /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/ I only have:

ls -la /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/
total 0
dr-xr-xr-x 6 root root 0 Nov 19 18:15 .
dr-xr-xr-x 6 root root 0 Nov 19 18:15 ..
dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Nov 19 18:15 all
dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Nov 19 18:15 default
dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Nov 19 18:15 eth0
dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Nov 19 18:15 lo

I don't have any other ifaces listed there.  Shouldn't there be more, like 
wlan0, ppp0, etc.?

I do.  It's like so:

Listen 192.168.0.5

but I don't define an iface in the boa.conf file and I don't have 
a /etc/conf.d/boa file.  Any more ideas please?
