you need to do an "ifconfig ne2 up" before starting this. No IP address
needed, but the interface can not transmit packets if it is marked down.

Just put "up" in /etc/ifconfig.ne2.

(If you are running -current I'd recommend using the in-kernel PPPoE
implementation, it's faster and it needs testing ;-} )
