Oh, I assumed your server was a Linux box with pppd etc. If not, we won't be able to help you with server config here. > Again to clear the confusion.... > yes with above remote devices I have tested for PPPoE on ATM > can i call this test as PPPoEoA !!!!! Perhaps you mean PPPoE over an RFC1483 bridged encap ATM link?
