Mandrake Linux also includes PPPoE software. Based on Red Hat so they may
also include it. But to my knowledge these are client apps only, not server.

FreeBSD supports PPPoE

We are looking to test various DSL modems and routers in our lab, but
can't get a DSL connection put in that building according to Verizon.  I'd
like to simulate one by running my own PPPoE server (my purpose is to test
the various SOHO routers on the market, particularly the Linksys and the
Cisco).

If anyone has any information about doing this, such as pointers to PPPoE
server software (I'd prefer to do it with linux or BSD), I would
appreciate the info.


Thanks,

Matt
