Kernel ppp is the old way which is no longer maintained. User ppp is the rewritten replacement for kernel ppp and is the one used by everyone these days. Kernel ppp is a dead horse, forget all about it.
To end user ppp session use console command killall ppp -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Tadimeti Keshav Sent: Wednesday, September 10, 2003 10:49 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Misc PPP questions Hi guys, I have a few questions. What are the specific advantages of using a kernel PPP over user PPP? I use the command ppp -ddial papchap. This, I am told, establishes a "stable" connection (i.e reconections are handled automatically). How do I hang up? Just switch the modem off? (of course I commented the line "set timeout 3000" in /etc/ppp/ppp.conf.)
