PLEASE HELP! This should really be a simple problem to solve for
anyone using PPP...

I am having a problem with user PPP. I seem to connect and create the PPP 
connection, but cannot do anything with it.
I am attaching some error messages I get when trying to use the PPP 
connection and my configuration et. al.
