I had the same problem about a year ago. Probably we have to
write one of our own ...

First you should get your DSL connection, ie. PPPoE running.
With a recent (4.4 , 4.5) -RELEASE you don't need to do any
kernel configurations for this.
All you have to do is, to find out how to configure your
/etc/ppp/ppp.conf

You will have to edit /etc/rc.conf and /etc/hosts - I think that
was it.

I think many people on this list can give you example
configurations, when you need them.


Good Luck,

Uli.
