Hello ,
here is a ppp.conf file for usinf PPP over Etghernet for an adsl modem but
there is something not clear to me:
1) how can I know the number to put into HISADDR ??
2) where to put the telephone number to dial ?
3) the guy of the telephone company will configure my adsl modem using
windows. May I Attach to the adsl modem to freebsd after the modem is
configured from windows ?? 
4) How I can know the IP Address assigned to the
external PPP over ATM adslmodem  interface ?

5) What if  I want to configure the modem from FreeBSD?
What I have to do to set the VCI And VPI in the adsl modem??

I am quite a lot confused.
thanks a lot

Rick


default:
 set device PPPoE:xl0 #xl0 is the nic conected to the modem
 set mru 1492
 set mtu 1492
 set authname  xxxx # replace xxx with your user name
 set authkey xxx #replace xxx with your password
 set log local Phase tun command debug # this will log stufff to ppp.log
and /var/log/messeges
 set dial  # this will dial automaticlly
 set login # and login
 set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0  # this is an address for the interfaces
( freebsd uses a tunnel from ppp to the nic so
this is the ip's used by xl0 and tun0 )
 delete all  # will delete all previous default routes
 add default HISADDR # set default route to the modem
 enable dns   # update dns from remote host
 nat enable yes  # this will enable all computers on network to be nat'ed
out
 iface-alias enable no  # if this is not in then everytime the modem gets
a
new ip it will be added to tun0 and not
replaced
