prefered way of persistent mode with pppoed to T-DSL on 7.3

Hi, FM is talking of resource wastings and security issues, but doesn't tell, how to enable pppd 'persist' and 'holdoff 60' options for pppoed, which reads obviously /etc/pppoed.conf, but does it read /etc/ppp/peers/pppoe, too? TIA, Hans-Peter
