-<h1>tkpppoe - A GUI for managing PPPoE Connections</h1>
-</center>
-
-<h1>Introduction</h1>
-
-TkPPPoE is a graphical user interface for managing PPPoE connections. It
-performs two different functions:
-<ul>
-<li>TkPPPoE lets you <em>define</em> connection properties. This step must
-be done as root.
-<li>TkPPPoE lets you <em>start and stop</em> PPPoE connections. This step
-may be done as a normal user, depending on how you configured the connection.
-</ul>
-
-<h1>Defining Connections</h1>
-
-To define connections, start TkPPPoE as root. You can do this from
-a terminal by typing <code>tkpppoe</code>, or from the KDE or GNOME menus
-by selecting <b>Internet : TkPPPoE</b>. The following window pops up:
-
-<p>
-<center><img src="mainwin.png" width="361" height="73" alt="Main Window">
-</center>
-
-<p>
-Because you have not yet defined any connections, the connection property
-window also pops up:
-
-<p>
-<center><img src="props-basic.png" width="440" height="259" alt="Connection Properties - Basic">
-</center>
-
-You can pop up the connection property window at any time by clicking
-<b>New Connection...</b> You can edit the properties of an existing
-connection by selecting the connection's name and clicking
-<b>Properties...</b>
-<h4>Basic Information</h4>
-
-Let's fill in the basic information:
-<ul>
-<li>For <b>Connection Name</b>, enter a unique name for this connection. It
-can be anything you like, but must contain only letters, numbers, underscores
-or dashes. In particular, it can't contain spaces. If you have only one
-PPPoE connection, a good name is <b>Default</b>.
-<li>For <b>User Name</b>, enter the user name supplied by your ISP. Enter
-only the user name; do not enter an "@isp.com" part.
-<li>For <b>Network</b>, you may have to enter your ISP's domain name.
-(For example, <b>isp.com</b>.) Some DSL providers add this to your user
-name; others do not. You may have to experiment a bit. The two most likely
-choices are your ISP's domain name, or blank. Try both.
-<li>For <b>Password</b>, enter the password your ISP provided you with.
-</ul>
-
-<h4>NIC and DNS</h4>
-Click on the <b>NIC and DNS</b> tab:
-
-<p>
-<center><img src="props-nic.png" width="440" height="259" alt="Connection Properties - NIC and DNS"></center>
-<p>
-<ul>
-<li>For <b>Ethernet Interface</b>, enter the Ethernet interface connected
-to the DSL modem. It is something like <b>eth0</b> or <b>eth1</b>. Click
-on <b>...</b> to browse a list of detected Ethernet interfaces.
-<li>For <b>DNS Setup</b>, you have three options:
-<ol>
-<li><b>From Server</b> means that the system will obtain DNS information from
-the PPPoE server. This is the correct choice for most ISPs.
-<li><b>Specify</b> means that you will enter the IP addresses of your DNS
-servers manually. In this case, enter the addresses in the <b>Primary DNS</b>
-and <b>Secondary DNS</b> entries.
-<li><b>Do not Adjust</b> means that you want RP-PPPoE to leave your
-DNS setup alone. Use this if you are running your own caching DNS server
-or know that you don't want the DNS setup touched.
-</ol>
-</ul>
-
-<h4>Options</h4>
-Click on the <b>Options</b> tab:
-
-<p>
-<center><img src="props-options.png" width="440" height="259" alt="Connection Properties - Options"></center>
-<p>
-<ul>
-<li>If you want ordinary users to be able to start and stop this connection,
-enable <b>Allow use by non-root users</b>. If you do not enable this,
-non-root users will be able to monitor the connection, but not control it.
-<li>If you want to use synchronous PPP, enable <b>Use synchronous PPP</b>.
-This is recommended as it conserves CPU usage, but may not work on some
-(misconfigured) Linux kernels.
-<li>For <b>Firewalling</b>, you have three options:
-<ol>
-<li><b>Stand-Alone</b> installs a simple firewall ruleset for stand-alone
-machines. Use this if you have only a single computer connected to the DSL
-modem.
-<li><b>Masquerading</b> installs a simple firewall ruleset for using
-your Linux computer as an Internet sharing device. If you have two Ethernet
-cards, you can connect one card to the DSL modem and the other to an
-internal LAN. The masquerading firewall ruleset lets internal machines
-share the DSL connection.
-<li><b>None</b>. If you already have your own firewall rules, or you wish
-to run servers on your machine, select None. This is <em>not recommended</em>
-unless you take steps to secure your machine, and know what you are doing.
-</ol>
-</ul>
-
-<h4>Advanced</h4>
-Click on the <b>Advanced</b> tab:
-
-<p>
-<center><img src="props-advanced.png" width="440" height="259" alt="Connection Properties - Advanced"></center>
-<p>
-
-In most cases, you can leave <b>AC-Name</b> and <b>Service-Name</b> blank.
-In some cases, your ISP may require you to enter information in these fields;
-contact your ISP for more information.
-
-<h1>Controlling Connections</h1>
-For these examples, run <code>tkpppoe</code> as a normal user (not root).
-The main window appears like this:
-
-<p>
-<center><img src="mainwin-nonroot.png" width="206" height="73" alt="Main Window - Non-root">
-</center>
-<p>
-<ul>
-<li>To start a connection, press <b>Start</b>. The two LEDs flash red
-and grey. If the connection is established, they turn green.
-<li>To stop a connection, press <b>Stop</b>.
-</ul>
-
-<p>The two rectangles to the right of the connection name are the
-<em>status LEDs</em>. The top LED corresponds to transmitted data and
-the bottom to received. The LEDs are colored as follows:
-<ul>
-<li>Grey -- connection is not established.
-<li>Flashing red/grey -- connection is being started.
-<li>Green -- connection is up, but idle.
-<li>Yellow -- connection is up and data is being sent or received.
-<li>Red -- connection has been lost, but the system is trying to reestablish it.
-</ul>
-
-<p>
-When a connection is established, two graphs appear:
-
-<p>
-<center><img src="mainwin-busy.png" width="206" height="73" alt="Main Window - Established Connection">
-</center>
-<p>
-
-The left (red) graph shows transmitted packets and the average
-transmission speed (in bits per second) over the sample time. The
-right (green) graph shows received packets.
-
-<h1>Miscellaneous Information</h1>
-<ul>
-<li>The connection menu has an entry called <b>User's Manual</b> which
-will pop up this user manual (if you have Netscape installed.)
-<li>You can define multiple PPPoE connections, but you should not use
-more than one simultaneuously unless you feel comfortable editing scripts
-and setting up routing tables. By default, TkPPPoE tries to add a default
-route for connections. This does not work well with multiple simultaneous
-connections.
-<li>If you exit from TkPPPoE, connections which are up remain up. You
-have to explicitly stop connections if you want them terminated.
-</ul>
