Thanks Laurel.  I've looked at the docs for kppp, anything else about
ppp, and anything remotely realated that I can find and nothing is
jumping out at me. I'll keep searching in the meantime and keep trying
different things. Though I don't use a script to connect in kppp I can
try writing one, but that won't stop it when I disconnect and I do have
to figure out how to stop it, too.

As long as I keep copies of my original files, there is no experiment I
can't undo. I will get it going sooner or later, one way or another. I
was just hoping for sooner.

Take care,

Gail
