QUESTION 1:
I am trying to set up a Slackware router for my DSL connection.  I have the 
modem set to act as a modem only and I want the router to do the PPPoE 
connection.
I have it connecting to the PPPoE account correctly by manually running 
pppoe-start.  I would like for it to make the connection at startup and 
reconnect when dropped.

Can anyone guide me as to how to set up pppoe and inet1 to do this?  I DON'T 
want to use rc.local or some hodgepodge script.




QUESTION 2 (OT):
Can anyone recommend a colocation company in the DFW area?  I'm not looking 
for someone with a T1 to their garage...  A real company with decent prices 
and good reliability.
