>Environment:
System: FreeBSD snark.rinet.ru 4.4-RC FreeBSD 4.4-RC #13: Wed Sep 12 21:45:58 MSD 2001 root@snark.rinet.ru:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/SNARK i386

>Description:
	In /etc/defaults/rc.conf exists option
	pppoed_provider="*". If it is not overriden in /etc/rc.conf,
	it is expanded to the listing of /. So pppoed is invoked
	with option -p COPYRIGHT bin boot ....

>How-To-Repeat:
	Try pppoed_enable="YES" in rc.conf. pppoed will not run on boot.
	If we insert echo in rc.network before /usr/libexec/pppoed,
	then we will see how pppoed_provider is misinterpreted.

>Fix:
	Comment out this line or override it.
