I just finished a PPoE module for Linuxconf. It will configure the rp-pppoe driver from www.roaringpenguin.com. The client (rp-pppoe) is a user-mode program and does not require any kernel modifications. It is fully compliant with RFC 2516, the official PPPoE specification. The linuxconf module (pppoe-linuxconf) asks for the username, password and interface to bind to. It configures /etc/ppp/pap-secrets and launches the script adsl-connect. It has been extensively tested on the canadian Sympatico HSE service, but many other ADSL providers should be compatible. The rp-pppoe and pppoe-linuxconf packages can be downloaded on my development site, www.advancedextranet.com/pub/linuxconf If you already have rp-pppoe 1.3, you need a patch for the adsl-connect script. It is available in the ./patches subdirectory. Please test the packages and send me back your comments, as I plan to include those packages in the future Linux-Mandrake 7.1.
