update-alternatives.
You'll be a much happier debianese if you know where these things

I'm sure there must be a less vile method of doing this... what is it?
a) Run a caching-only nameserver on the modem box.
b) Just put the ISP's three nameservers in /etc/resolv.conf and be happy.
The only real purpose served by dynamic DNS is to save users the trouble

Pppconfig uses pppd to autodetect, but why do you care? You know what
port to use. Just select it manually in pppconfig.

Why? Just set up demand-dialing on it with pppconfig,

Hi,
My motherboard has no ISA slots, but my (hardware) modem is an ISA
