[newbie] Turn off auto connect to ISP on boot??

2003-03-16 Thread Bob Read
I installed LM8.1 then upgraded to LM8.2  and have been
automatically connected to my ISP on boot.  Now I am using
that computer as a backup, and don't want it normally
connected.  Can someone tell me how to turn off the
automatic KPPP connection?
Much thanks,

Bob

You should be able to run linuxconf and turn it off under the networking
option - or go back through KPPP and turn it off. It would be better to
use KPPP and just delete the connection setup so that it's empty, but
you still might want to check through in linuxconf and make sure that
it's really really off...HTH

The idea of man leaving this earth and flying to another celestial body and
landing there and stepping out and walking over that body has a fascination
and a driving force that can get the country to a level of energy, ambition,
and will that I do not see in any other undertaking.  I think if we are
honest with ourselves, we must admit that we needed that impetus extremely
strongly.  I sincerely believe that the space program, with its manned
landing on the moon, if wisely executed, will become the spearhead for a
broad front of courageous and energetic activities in all the fields of
endeavour of the human mind - activities which could not be carried out 
except in a mental climate of ambition and confidence which such a spearhead
can give.
- Dr. Martin Schwarzschild, 1962, in The History of Manned Space Flight
