I was just wondering if there is a way to access PPP (or PPPoE) to
transmit/receive data. i.e. a programming API or something? Is the
/dev/ipd interface a possibility? I'm using Solaris if that's of any
importance. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Could you please elaborate? Do you simply want to send/receive some data
over the PPP link? Then just initiate a PPP connection and send/receive the
data using the standard TCP/IP protocol suite.
