[ILUG] KPPP and IOL

Can you change the settings in pppd options file for debug and kdebug so 
that we can see a bit more information during the connection attempt. AFAIK 
debug 4 and kdebug 4 will do.
The man page will give correct settings if i am wrong.

Post the resulting log file after an connection attempt.

Regards Ger
