I heard about ten times it was fixed in -current. Stop asking it
dammit.
Now there's a decent reply. Lets see...this was my FIRST real
in-kernel question....I dont seem to recall asking this before.
Alot of us CAN'T follow -current. I can't...Thats why i asked about 3.7.
Now, can someone out there (that uses 3.7-stable) with more than a
peanut for a brain possibly help me?
I thought I asked nicely and it was a legit question.
Perhaps someone on the list is using this and knows. Otherwise, I can
continue to use 3.7 with userland pppoe just fine.

It is a fair question, so I'll note the following:
1. If someone replies to you off-list, respect that.
2. Kernel PPPoE is still quite young. If it isn't in the manpage, odds
are it either isn't there, isn't stable, or breaks horribly when you
look at it funny.
3. That said, any time my link has gone down, it's come back up quite
nicely for me, using nothing but the config laid out in the manpage. Of
course, I don't use/need LQR, so YMMV.
Perhaps if you posted more meaningful info
(http://www.openbsd.org/mail.html), someone could give you a more useful
answer.
