How did you start ppp? In XWindows I use the netcfg control panel module to
create the ppp0 interface, and click "activate" to start a connection.....,
when I want to end a connection I just "inactivate" the interface and the
connection goes down and the routing table is updated.
This is what a GUI is for........
