It's /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ppp0, or another form of
pppoe.conf.  Although the man page for pppoe.conf shows the
/etc/.../ifcfg-ppp0 reference.  They are invoked by "adsl-start".  Also,
make sure you changes your username in this file as well.

What config file is that? I have pppoe.conf and /etc/ppp/options. It doesn't
seem to resemble either.
