I have a Redhat linux 7.2 server.  500mhz 160mb ram.  I have setup the PPPOE Through the control panel.  Every couple of minutes the connection drops and then reconnects with a new IP address.  I need it to stay constant to run apache.  I am using a update service to send the new ip to a hostname, but if it only lastsd a minute or two the new ip isnt updated by the time it changes.  I need to figure out how to make the connection more constant so the IP only changes when the lease expires.  Any suggestions?  Please email me. 
 
    Just for another note.  I tried to configure the connection with adsl-setup, but it doesnt exist.  Even after I installed the rp-ppoe rpm, all that is there is adsl-start and it wont owrk b/c of no config file.
 
Thanks
