After dozens of locates, man pages, grep and google searches, i'm near brain-dead and 
need help.  

Whenever pppd exits (via kppp disconnect, killall wvdial or killall pppd, on RH7.1, 
ppp-2.4.0-2, wvdial-1.41-12), i'm getting hundreds of entries in /var/log/messages and 
/var/log/ppp saying:

Nov 25 03:45:06 vcserver1 modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module ppp0
Nov 25 03:45:41 vcserver1 last message repeated 7 times
Nov 25 03:45:51 vcserver1 last message repeated 2 times
<...>

I've collected and annotated select entries from /var/log/ppp and inserted them below. 
They're also in the attached text file, for an easier, un-word-wrapped read. [Comments 
re what was cut and what was done are in angle brackets, <like this>, on a line of 
their own.] Some config's precede the ppp log entries. 

Why these messages? Should i do something to correct this situation? What? [Wild 
guess: Do i just need to remove "debug" from /etc/ppp/options?] 

Thanks,
AD
