you can use pptpd (poptop). But I prefer pppoe. The main thing is connectiong server to RADIUS (freeradius) server. This RADIUS can use MYSQL. You can use web scripts (PHP-using same MYSQL tables) to add users, set quote ... and everything you want.
DO NOT use PAP authentication becouse passwords are sending plain text. And everyone can start pppoe-server with your name and will collect passwords of others !
