I was using version 1.2.3 previously and had the adsl connection 
working, I just forgot how I did it. I do know that I did not install 
anything other than what came with DL. If anyone knows where the 
adsl/pppoe config would be that creates the ppp0 device on DL, please 
let me know, Thanks, Peter
