This may be dated as I last used it in 2003 on, IIRC, 3.4 for a  
conference at a hotel that had SBC DSL. You'll want to compare this  
to the current pf.conf and adjust as needed. Replace "XXXXXXX" with  
your password.

#ppp.conf for cathill sbc
#uses onboard 3com nic

default:
   set log Phase Chat LCP IPCP CCP tun command
   set redial 15 0
   set reconnect 15 10000

pppoe:
#basic settings
   set device "!/usr/sbin/pppoe -i xl0"
   disable acfcomp protocomp
   deny acfcomp
   set mtu max 1492
   set mru max 1492
   set speed sync

#some ppp options
   enable lqr
   set lqrperiod 5
   set cd 5
   set timeout 0

#this updates resolv.conf with preferred dns servers

#authinfo
   set dial
   set login
   set authname "cathill"
   set authkey "XXXXXXXXXXX"
   add! default HISADDR
   enable mssfixup
   enable dns


HTH,

Tony
