This is what I need to do PPPoE on -current system at home.
-the interface is ed0
-it uses the /modules/ng-* modules
-should probably have a tun device in the kernel
-as well as the following line your kernel config
options NETGRAPH #netgraph(4) system
/etc/ppp/ppp.conf
------------------
default:
set log Phase tun command
pppoe:
set device PPPoE:ed0:
set mru 1492
set mtu 1492
set speed sync
enable lqr
set cd 5
set dial
set login
set redial 0 0
set authname b1XXXXXXX@sympatico.ca
set authkey YYYYYYYY
set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0 255.255.255.0 0.0.0.0
add default HISADDR
enable dns
------------------
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/000pppoe.sh
------------------
#!/bin/sh
ifconfig ed0 1.1.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.255 > /dev/null
ppp -dedicated pppoe > /dev/null
echo -n 'PPPoE '
------------------
I don't know if the ifconfig part is needed, it just works for
me. I think there is more info in /usr/share/examples/ppp.
