pppoe-start – Shell script to bring up a PPPoE link

Synopsis

pppoe-start [config_file] pppoe-start interface user [config_file]

Description

pppoe-start is a shell script which starts the Roaring Penguin user-space PPPoE client. If you omit config_file, the default file /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ppp0 is used. If you supply interface and user, then they override the Ethernet interface and user-name settings in the configuration file.
