Since I run the OpenBSD box headless, it's not as though I have to really
deal with all the dmesg pppoe debug updates. Still, this isn't the cleanest
way of running pppoe, and I'm a bit miffed that my /var partition is filling
up.

As far as my own setup goes, I did indeed have to set the DSL modem to
bridging mode. I'm running a Netopia 2210 with AT&T if it matters.

Shizzle, did you ever solve any of the previous setups that required the
debug flag turned on?
