Hi,

I don't understand why eth0 is involved in the config, if I have an internal
adsl card in the LEAF. The documentation talks about PPPoA connection via a
NIC, so possibly that is what the below refers to. I won't have that NIC,
and will presumably just get something like a ttyS0 which I have to link to
ppp0?

thanks
Dave
