You don't need this, if you want to use kernel-pppoe. This is another
userspace-driver.

Change this to 1492. You also have to add the PPPoE-Modul. You'll find a
working config-file at [1]. Unfortunately with german comments, have a
look in "man pppd" to figure out what all the options stand for. It
could also be useful to activate "debug" and "kdebug 4" in the
options-file. So you'll get a lot of interesting infos in

^^^^^^^^^^
This have to be: user "(username)@covad.net" (see [1]).

These are for Kernel-PPPoE with Kernel 2.2.x! With the options-file
above you only have to use "pppd eth1".

This is for rp-pppoe, not for Kernel-PPPoE!

Maybe you should post to the ppp-Mailinglist (linux-ppp at
vger.kernel.org).
