Somehow, my pppoe cofiguration has stopped working. Some combination of changes to portage,baselayout, or ppp has resulted in confusion as to what my configuration really is. Apparently, I am now supposed to make changes to /etc/conf.d/net.ppp0 rather that directly edit my configs. I have reconstructed most of my config there, however- I need to have ppp start on eth1, but it complains that there is no such device.

Could someone please how me a working example of net.ppp0 for a dsl connection?

My gentoo router connects to the Internet using an ADSL modem connected to eth0 (eth1 is my LAN) with rp-pppoe, using the following /etc/conf.d/net:

Code:
dns_domain_lo="wg.local"

config_eth0=( "adsl" )

config_eth1=( "192.168.23.1/24" )

config_ppp0=( "ppp" )
link_ppp0="eth0"
plugins_ppp0=( "pppoe" )
username_ppp0='username_here'
password_ppp0='password_here'


To bring up my Internet connection, i just run

Code:
/etc/init.d/net.eth0 start

read /etc/conf.d/net.example more carefully. it is all there:
Code:
config_eth1=( "null" )
RC_NEED_ppp0="net.eth1"
