    Lately I have bben using redhat-configure-network to set up the ppp0
    account files. This willl allow you to choose phone number, and other
    options to ppp0 interface just as you would have to do with wvdial or
    kppp. Then to get the interface connected use modem lights which you
    can add to the panel by right clicking and going to Add to
    paned -> Internet-> modem lights. Only two suggestions: 1. change the
    name of the lock file in /var/lock to LCK..ttySx (0 or 1). And picj
    appropriate status colors. left click to connect and disconnect. Works
    faster than othe dialup programs.
