[S.u.S.E. Linux] Looking for help on getting ppp-up connected

I can't seem to get my ppp connection working. I'm dialing into Flash Net in
Albuquerque, NM, USA. I have a seyon script that sends the login, but I
don't know what shell file to run to get the PPP connection established.
It's a little frustrating. In the seyon terminal window in XFree86, I can
see the PPP starting message, and then after about 15 seconds, the
connection is broken. I am presuming this happens because I haven't
established the PPP network connection to Flash Net.

I am brand spanking new to Linux/UNIX. I feel half-decent about getting my
installation to the state it is at. I've been able to compile my own kernel,
configure XFree86, get my sound card set up via isapnp, and configure my
modem properly. However, I feel like I am missing something basic
potentially, so if anyone has any questions to probe potential "gotchas",
I'll be glad to answer them.

New on the list,
Bruce Bawcom
