Have you tried investigating the netgraph subsystem, and ng_ether(4) in particular, perhaps in connection with the mpd-netgraph port? I haven't done it myself, but I'd be surprised if you couldn't use that combination to produce a PPPoE link. It can do just about anything else. I do use mpd-netgraph to run an MS-PPTP VPN link to the office, and it does that nicely. Entirely different issue of course, but I was most impressed with the ng framework when I read about it. -- Andrew To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
