Your /etc/ppp/peers/dsl-provider file should look something like this: pty "pppoe -I eth0 -T 80" noipdefault defaultroute hide-password lcp-echo-interval 20 lcp-echo-failure 3 mtu 1492 mru 2400 noauth persist You can use any other pppoe options on the pty line too. jc -- Jeff Coppock Systems Engineer Diggin' Debian Admin and User
