Been there, tried that.Happen to know how to configure PPPoE in Debian Sarge to a specific IP address when the ppp interface is brought up? PPP sort of implies that the "server" will assign the PPP client an address, but remember we have 5 static IP addresses from BellSouth... so in our case the Linux client will know what address it wants already.
