tlug: PPP blues and purples

[Tony Laszlo <laszlo@example.com>]

Quick newbie question: 

I ran 'dmesg | more' and noticed that there was 
no mention of 'PPP' in the results. 
I understand there should be something like 
'PPP Dynamic channel allocation code copyright 
1995 Caldera, Inc.' and 'PPP line discipline 
registered.' in there. 

Before I download and install whichever file 
is needed to adjust the kernel, I want to be 
sure that those dmesg results necessarily 
mean that my kernel was not configured to 
run PPP when TL 2.0J Standard was installed.  

Also, is making the PPP connection any easier 
with Redhat or other Linux flavors? 

Thanks.
