So here is mu ifconfig.pppoe0 file

------------------------------ ifconfig.pppoe0 ------------------------
create
! /sbin/ifconfig re0 up
! pppoectl -e re0 $int
! pppoectl $int myauthproto=pap 'xxx' 'myauthsecret=yyyy' hisauthproto=none
inet 0.0.0.0 netmask 0xffffffff
#! pppoectl $int max-auth-failure=1
up
------------------------------------------------------------------------

When I restart the network I ger this.

  ifconfig: SIOCGIFAFLAG_IN: Can't assign requested address

but it works.  The man page actually says that the fifth line should be
this.

  inet 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.1 netmask 0xffffffff

but then this is what I get and it doesn't work.

[  404.125896] pppoe: connected to CMLDON7502W
[  404.295963] pppoe0: ipcp illegal conf-req in state initial
[  404.315971] pppoe0: ipcp illegal conf-req in state initial
[  404.335979] pppoe0: ipcp illegal conf-req in state initial
...

The same thing happens if I leave the line out altogether.  I guess I
will live with the error in the logs unless someone knows why it is
doing that.
