    sorry i am not using KPPP but i've got the same problem i tried to add

    # 3 is the choice i have to type on the  slip, telnet and ppp terminal.
            OPTION = 3
            ........
            export OPTION, LOGIN, PASSWORD .....

in my ppp-on files and

            ogin-ogin:                    $LOGIN                    \
            assword:                         $PASSWORD            \
            elections-elections:    $OPTION

in my script ... it seemed to me that the connection was made but i didn't get
thru. so bad i have to go back to use minicom ....

ANYONE knows how to make it work?

PS .. i am using communicator 4.06 .. it really drives me mad. so i have to go
back for lynx. :-(
