Much more extensive configuration for dial-up. Basically, it asks you to copy over the provider file under /etc/ppp/peers
Also, when I did an emerge ppp on the 2.6.16 box in the log it mentions the new way of doing things, ie using ../conf.d/net But I just noticed I had to rc-update del net.ppp0 default or it would a) dialout when booting and b) fail to connect.
