Agreed. I should have looked a little closer. I thought there was a pty
given to pppob, or somewhere in the options, it doesn't look that way
now. Me bad :(

I haven't got a clue what NetworkManager is, and it's sounding like
something I want to avoid. I use the standard Fedora
system-config-network, then just ifup BlackBerry when I want it. It
sounds like NetworkManager is one of those things that claims to read
your mind, when in reality it just guesses, and sometimes does what you
want.

I'll just keep quiet now ....
