Are you using KDE for your window manager with Kppp ?  The 1.1 version
of Kppp had a bug which was reproducible and did everything that you
are describing.  Which distro are you using ?  See also......

and look for stuff about connecting to an ISP.  Zetnet will accept
CHAP as well as PAP. I use CHAP with Kisdn to connect to them.  You
shouldn't have a problem with this ISP.

Thanks
