Greetings: Can't help with pppoa but I got pppoe working with much
doco reading and considerable help from Ray and Chuck on this list..

I have the file: DSL-HOWTO.pdf > 200K, that goes into all DSL formats
including pppoa.. It may give you some clues, finding it via google,
by Hal Burgiss, hal@foobar.net; v1.71 2002-07-21... HTH..
