Thanks for all the hints. The problem was that for many years I have
only used 'normal' pppd connections (over modems, ISDN or UMTS), but
never PPPoE. So I went to the ports and did search 'name=pppoe' and
ended up in net/rp-pppoe and was confused. It seems that just ppp(8) is
what I have to use. Thx again.
