Neither inittab nor inetd.conf are the correct place for this. Those are
places for setting up on-demand service handlers for inbound activity...
like getty, telnetd (well, not on a public system) or pppd configured to
answer a dial-in. In this case, you are setting up an outbound service
request, which is typically handled once at a defined time in the startup
sequence, after other supporting services (like your lan) are already
working.
There ought to be a script in /etc/init.d brought in from your adsl.lrp
package like the one posted from ppp.lrp earlier, and it should contain an
RCDLINKS variable so it will get activated properly. See
http://lrp.c0wz.com:81/dox/bootsequence.txt for more on the startup
sequence for LRP/Eigerstein. Most of this probably also applies to
Oxygen, too.
