Distribution-Specific Information
Caldera, Red Hat, and Debian will each have ksaferppp as long as the KDE packages have been installed. If not, GNOME has a similar tool called gpppon (GNOME PPP on). This utility will be available in any system that includes GNOME and has this utility installed. Debian also includes several other PPP tools, including pppconfig, quickppp, and ppxp (which also has a Tk and X interface). The pppconfig script automates much of what was previously discussed regarding setting up automatic demand dialing (Debian just uses a different chatscript directory location).
