What distro are you using?  you may be able to use a connection wizard
to set it up.  For distro's that don't have connection wizards, i
recommend Roaring Penguin PPPOE as your client.  Its pretty straight
forward setup, and even a a TK gui for those who don't like the command
line.

hope this helps,
