[clug] Transact setup

[Alex Osborne]

Hi Adrian,

TransACT uses PPPOE for their connections. All you should need to do is 
open a terminal and run:

sudo pppoeconf

It'll then ask you a bunch of questions like username, password etc. 
Fill in the details that worked in Windows, the username should be  of 
the form username at grapevine.com.au. Once pppoeconf is done, you should 
be able to connect with "pon dsl-provider" and disconnect with "poff".

Cheers,

Alex
