Feature

Hi guys,

I am from Brazil and the most of ISPs need to authentic connection with pppoe, and this feature is very necessary to nethserver up on brazil.

Sorry for my bad english.

Thanks,

PPPoE is in my roadmap, I have some past experience, but no ISP to test it now.
Would you like to be a beta tester?

So first of all we need button in Network section on interface to Switch proto to PPPoe - so it should change :
db networks set eth0 ethernet role red hwaddr 5A:E4:97:D9:C4:6F onboot yes bootproto none
After that it should be ppp interface page.
Finnaly we need to change /etc/ppp/chap-secrets - with user name and password from ppp page
