Although it's true that the usernames should be quoted, the T-Online user
name is, in my case, 0007361313575100449978470001.  No need to quote
anything here.  This is my Anschlusskennung + T-Online-Nr. + 0001.

That's fixed in the next release of isdn4net, or is it initscripts?  Anyway.

You mean ". /etc...", don't you?

Could be done this way.  And also add "ms-get-dns", to make ipppd get the
correct IP adresses of the nameservers on dialup.
