YMMV, but on my RH5 box, I just use '/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup
ppp0' to go up, and '/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifdown ppp0' to take
the ppp xface down. I'm not sure if this will work on a system where
'netcfg' has been used to set up ppp and none of the scripts or config
files have been edited. One of the gurus can probably answer that, but give
it a try and see what happens.
