adsl in rc.conf daemon array

I tried to start pppoe as a background daemon @adsl in rc.conf, but it just doesn't work. It works fine when manually pppoe-start or as a non-background daemon, but it takes time to dial up.

So how to configure it correctly?

Do you have a firewall starting up after adsl in rc.conf? If so, maybe some firewall setting is stopping the pppoe connection attempt?

Are there any errormessages? Somthing special in the logs? If you're unsure you should post them, so we can tell what the problem might be.

Obviously something in your array needs to start only after the pppoe daemon has done its job, so just don't start it in the background?

No. I don't have a firewall.

And the log message is the same as manually connect, which connect pppoe correctly.

@adsl is the last daemon I start, but I'm not sure if there are some dependencies here.
