use the program 'linuxconf' as root to set this up.
navigate to Config->Networking->Client Tasks->PP/SLIP/PLIP and add a PPP
connection. It works just like you would under win95 - enter a phone
number, etc, choose PAP, and give your isp username and password. Select
the checkbox that says a regular user can control the connection.
Then to start the connection do
/sbin/ifup ppp0
and to stop it
/sbin/ifdown ppp0
