pppoe/ppp?

[Mike Ayers <mike_(_dot_)_ayers_(_at_)_earthling_(_dot_)_net>]

	I haven't upgraded in a while, and finally have the time, so I'm 
upgrading my firewall from 2.9 to 3.3 (I'm building a 3.3 firewall which 
will replace the 2.9 one).  My setup is typical DSL PPPoE.  When I built 
the 2.9 firewall, there was only the pppoe driver for PPPoE, but now it 
appears that ppp handles PPPoE as well?  Can anyone comment on the 
differences between the two?  Recommendation?


	Thanks,

P.S.  I tried looking through the archives for this.  However the 
searchable archives aren't very useful, as they list older messages 
first.  I was unable to get anything more recent than 2001!  Is there 
anyplace I can just download the bulk archives and search them on my own 
machine?
