Hi

I am a very new user of NetBSD and am currently trying to set up my computer 
to connect to the internet via DSL. my provider is Verizon from NY. My 
friend found me a article 
http://www.bsdtoday.com/2001/February/Features401.html and it had gotten me 
started.. however when i execute the command
# pppoe -if rtk0 -name "user@bellatlantic.net"

i got a pppd error that said noipx option not recognized.. for pppd version 
2.4.0 meanwhile when i read the man page the option is there.. i am kinda 
confused. i am currently using NetBSD 1.5 and the package of pppoe i am 
using is the one from der Mouse--pkgsrc/net/mouse-pppoe

would someone please advise or help me? thanks so much in advance! :)

anthony
