I faced almost exactly the same problem. The reason, I believe, for the
termination of the connection is that eth0 should NOT be up when ppp0
interface is on. Therefore, I give the command:
ifconfig eth0 down
before starting the ppp connection through the kppp dialog box.
When it is disconnected I give the command:
ifconfig eth0 up
In fact, I put these two as two one-line shell scripts called ethdown and
ethup, entered these two names in the "Before connect" and "Upon
disconnect" text boxes under the Execute tab of creating/editing a
connection using the kppp dialog box.
