I'm not exactly sure what the errors in the log symbolize (why is it saying "dial" when it's PPPoE, anyway?), but I set up PPPoE to connect to Pacific Bell just last week, so I'll briefly go through the steps, just in case you missed something: - Compile the kernel with NETGRAPH, NETGRAPH_PPPOE, and NETGRAPH_SOCKET. - Configure the "outside" interface: ifconfig dc0 inet 1.1.1.1 netmask 255.0.0.0 -arp up - Edit ppp.conf (actually, I rewrote it for the most part). I don't remember what I changed, but I have all of the PPPoE settings under "default" and the authentication info under "papchap". If you want a copy, let me know. - Start ppp. I use: "ppp -background -nat -quiet papchap". The first time you start it you may want to omit the background, nat, and quiet options. - Enjoy!
