Is anybody working on a pppoe solution that will run as part of the kernel?
There is also that mouse-pppoe package.  But there is not much 
documentation about that.  

Is anyone using that mouse-pppoe?  Right now I'm using a windows 98 second edition
machine as gateway to my home network, but I'd like to get away from that.
