Darrick,

  I use PPP quite a bit.  Here is a box:

grep -i ppp /etc/rc.conf:
EXTIF=ppp0
PPPOEKERNEL="YES"
PPPOEUSER="fakeuser"
PPPOEPASS="fakepass"
PPPOEIF=eth0

pbx ~ # cat /tmp/etc/ppp/pppoe.conf
ETH=eth0
USER=fakeuser
DEMAND=no
DNSTYPE=SERVER
PEERDNS=yes
DNS1=
DEFAULTROUTE=yes
CONNECT_TIMEOUT=30
CONNECT_POLL=2
ACNAME=
SERVICENAME=
PING=.
CONFIG=/etc/ppp
CF_BASE=pppoe.conf
PIDFILE=/var/run/pppoe.conf-adsl.pid
SYNCHRONOUS=no
CLAMPMSS=1412

PPPOE_TIMEOUT=160
FIREWALL=NONE
PPPOE_EXTRA=
PPPD_EXTRA=
LINUX_PLUGIN=/usr/lib/ppp/rp-pppoe.so

pbx ~ # cat /tmp/etc/ppp/pap-secrets
fakeuser * fakepass

pbx ~ # ifconfig ppp0
ppp0      Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol
