Pppoeconf should work out of the box and one has to simply enter data as it is asked on screen. It does not require any AC identity. I just tried it out yesterday using Kubuntu 6.10 live at a client's place. If you have any *buntu 5.10 and above CD then test pppoeconf out using a live session before getting inside your system. However the latest Feisty ( 7.04 ) does not have complete packages.
Well, I had tried pppoeconf using Fiesty a few months back, couldn't get it to work and switched back to Fedora. Maybe the reason why pppoeconf is not working on my machine is because on my LAN there are multiple ACs and I have an account on 2 of them with the same username. I need to connect to "worldnet001" to use Internet but LAN sharing doesn't work here. I need to connect to "zone.net" to be able to use LAN sharing (DC++), but Internet doesn't work here. I don't know the reason for this strange setup at my LAN. Anyways, the rp-pppoe package does the work.
