there are a couple of lines near the end that are for pppd extra arguments and pppoe extra arguments, but i don't think that was what you were referring to.
should i add it myself? is it something like pppd=/usr/sbin/pppd ?
thanks

going through drakconnect, i use the wizard, and select only adsl (is this right?) and put in my details... the same one's that work fine in OS X. it tries to connect, after 15seconds or so fails. it sends some data upstream and i can see it on the net monitor as well as the data led on the modem. (which had remained silent until then)
any idea's? what should i be checking? and what about the question "does the network need to be restarted?" can this make a difference?
Sorry, forgot one problem I had when I set it up the first time. The PPPD
value in /etc/ppp/pppoe.conf was set to NOTFOUND. Edit that file as root and
change it to /usr/sbin/pppd.
The problem is that rpppoe is dialing your connection (thus the lights), but
the thing that actually makes it a network interface (pppd) is not starting.
