hmmm. I  am not so sure.  My pppoeconf did  not put in an  ``auto eth0
<whatever>''  directive in  /etc/network/interfaces  - It  was put  in
there by debian's installer script.

I tried  using the client  - natserver configuration, and  had remobed
pppoeconf  and  friends,  and  the  eth0 stanza  put  in  by  debian's
installer. Once I switched back to modem mode again, pppoeconf did not
create the eth0 stanza.

Is that a bug in pppoeconf? of am I missing something?
