I tried looking for the any "debugging" or "compression" features turned on
in my /etc/ppp/otions file and found nothing. I also see that each time I
log on I get this list of msgs printed (Excuse me for the length of this
post)

Why are the scripts ip-up and ip-down called? Inside these I find links
to /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup-post ifcfg-${LOGDEVICE}. What does
this mean? Why is it there? Why is it useful? Also I find these lines in
my dmesg:
--------------------
CSLIP: code copyright 1989 Regents of the University of California
PPP: version 2.3.7 (demand dialling)
PPP line discipline registered.
registered device ppp0
PPP BSD Compression module registered
PPP Deflate Compression module registered
--------------------
Again, I have no clue to what this is, but I think all the messages I get
is because of this. Am I right? Must I disable this? Why/Why not?
Thanks,

Whatever you want to do, you have to do something else first.
