I have been able to get PPP started, but it is too manual of a process.
Currently, I have to start PPP and issue the 'term' command so I can talk
directly to my modem.

I do not understand the various keywords used in ppp.conf to create a custom
DialScript.  Does anyone know where I can find out more on customizing the
ppp.conf file; specifically, customizing the DialScript?

Thanks in advance.
