(Get the code!)
While it may seem that some of the information leads to the use of Gnome-ppp it is not available in package form outside of any Intrepid repository, at least I have yet to find it. Since I tried the pppconfig for setting up the dial up I don't see how Gnome-ppp is going to resolve the issue.
Also it may seem "so passe'" to use dial up but some folks have no real options, in spite of what some providers say and do. Also the difference in costs are substantial. Internet access costs me $120 a year on dial up and almost that much a month for cable or Fiber optic systems.
There also seem to be some reports that Gnome-ppp does not function either.
