Look good, however let me add my 2 cents.  Can the "pppoectl" argument
keywords be changed as follows?

	hisauthproto  => peerauthproto
	hisauthname   => peerauthname
	hisauthsecret => peerauthsecret

since "peer" is a more accurate term that is commonly used with PPP,
then that "his" term, and after all not all of us are guys.
