Don, I don't have an ethernet card or LAN, but I did notice that if I shut down Linux and then start up again, I get a message saying:
wwwoffle in autodial mode also: PPP: version 2.3.7 (demand dialling) The default route: debian:/home/peter# route -n Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 192.168.0.2 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 1 0 0 tap0 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 U 1 0 0 tap0 only appears if I shut down and restart LInux. Restarting KDE does not have this effect. I noticed in man for diald: Routes for the proxy link should have "0.0.0.0" as the gateway. Is this a clue that diald is responsible? Donald R.

I connect to the internet with "pon," and would prefer not to have any program dial in automatically. If, as you suggested, diald is causing this problem, I would like to remove it safely, but do not know how. Would this be through apt-get remove? I am very new to Linux, so have not done this before.
