the link that i followed was this.

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ADSLPPPoE

but this reaches a point where i have to enter the id and pwd, which i
dont know. (i share it )
in windows all i need to do it to plug in the dsl cable and the
internet is up.

when i do ifconfig -a
i get

eth0
Link encap Ethernet HWaddr xx:xx:xxx
Up broadcast running multicast blah blah

lo

OK, so your ethernet controller works. Do you have a DSL router or modem
and which type is it? As it works in Windows, the ID + password must be
stored somewhere, but it could be somewhere in Windows (if you share the
machine as well) or in the modem / router.
