Added pppconfig and made it depend on ppp-2.4.1-r2 which contains a few

simple scripts to start and stop connections. If you want to allow users to
run pon and poff themselves run the following as root
chown -R root.dialout /etc/{chatscripts,ppp}
chmod -R g+r /etc/{chatscripts,ppp}
chown root.dialout /usr/sbin/pppd
chown root.dialout /dev/ppp
and then add the users you want to the dialout group. (don't think I left
any perms changes out)

+.TH PON 1 "February 2000" "Debian Project" "Debian PPPD"
+.SH NAME
+pon, poff, plog \- starts up, shuts down or lists the log of PPP connections
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B pon
+.RB [ " isp-name " ]
+.br
+.B poff
+.RB [ " \-r " ]
+.RB [ " \-d " ]
+.RB [ " \-c " ]
+.RB [ " \-a " ]
+.RB [ " \-h " ]
+.B isp-name
+.br
+.B plog
+.RB [ " argument " ]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+This manual page describes the \fBpon\fP, \fBpoff\fP and \fBplog\fP
+scripts, which allow users to control PPP connections.
+.PP
+.B pon
+starts a PPP connection to a provider, reading its configuration from
+.I /etc/ppp/peers/provider
+and using the chatscript
+.IR /etc/chatscripts/provider .
+This is the default setting if
+.B isp-name
+is not given.
+.PP
+To start a PPP connection to a different provider, specify an
+.B isp-name
+operand.  For instance, to use provider configuration "provider2" run
+.IP 
+pon provider2 
+.PP
+The system will then use the chatscript
+.I /etc/chatscripts/provider2
+and the options file
+.IR "/etc/ppp/peers/provider2".
+You can use
+.B pon
+to run multiple, simultaneous PPP connections.
+.PP
+.B poff
+closes a PPP connection. If more than one PPP connection exists, the one named
+in the argument to 
+.B poff 
+will be killed, e.g. 
+.IP 
+poff myprovider2
+.PP
+will terminate the connection to myprovider2, and leave the PPP connection 
+to "myprovider1" up and running.
+.PP
+.B plog
+shows you the last few lines of
+.IR /var/log/ppp.log .
+If that file doesn't exist, it shows you the last few lines of
+.IR /var/log/syslog
+file, but excluding the lines not generated by pppd.
+This script makes use of the
+.BR tail (1)
+command, so arguments that can be passed to
+.BR tail (1)
+can also be passed to 
+.B plog.
+.SH OPTIONS
+.SS Options for pon
+.TP
+.B isp-name
+is the name of the ISP connection to start. If no
+.B isp-name
+is specified,
+.B pon
+will use the name "provider".
+.SS Options for poff
+.TP
+.B "\-r"
+causes the connection to be redialed after it is dropped.
+.TP
+.B "\-d"
+toggles the state of pppd's debug option.
+.TP
+.B "\-c"
+causes
+.BR pppd (8)
+to renegotiate compression.
+.TP
+.B "\-a"
+stops all running ppp connections. If the argument
+.B isp-name
+is given it will be ignored.
+.TP
+.B "\-h"
+displays help information.
+.TP
+.B "\-v"
+prints the version and exits.
+.PP
+If no argument is given it will kill all ppp connections. Like the
+.B "\-a"
+option.
+.SS Options for plog
+.TP
+.B argument
+is any argument you can also pass to
+.BR tail (1).
+.SH REQUIREMENTS
+.BR pppd (8)
+must be installed and configured.
+.PP
+.I /etc/chatscripts/provider
+is the default chatscript, used when
+.B pon
+is invoked without an argument. Edit it to suit your needs. See
+.BR chat (8).
+.PP
+.I /etc/ppp/peers/provider
+is the default options file, used when
+.B pon
+is invoked without an argument. Edit it to suit your needs. See
+.BR pppd (8).
+.PP
+When
+.B pon
+is invoked with an
+.B isp-name
+argument, different filenames are used.  For example, if
+.B isp-name
+"myprovider" is specified, chatscript
+.I /etc/chatscripts/myprovider
+and options file
+.IR /etc/ppp/peers/myprovider
+are used.
+.SH NOTE
+The
+.B plog
+script can only be used by root or another system administrator in
+group "adm" due to security reasons. Also, to have all pppd-generated
+information in one logfile, that plog can show, you need the following
+line in your /etc/syslog.conf file:
+.PP
+local2.*		-/var/log/ppp.log
+.SH FILES
+.TP
+.I /etc/chatscripts/provider
+The default chat script.
+.TP
+.I /etc/ppp/peers/provider
+The default peer option file.
+.TP
+.I /etc/ppp/chap-secrets
+System CHAP passwords file.
+.TP
+.I /etc/ppp/pap-secrets
+System PAP passwords file.
+.TP
+.I /etc/ppp/options
+System PPP option file.
+.TP
+.I /var/log/ppp.log
+The default PPP log file.
