If you use X-Windows, you might want to try Xisp, which takes care of this
for you. Each ISP entry can have its own configuration. I especially
like being able to define multiple phone numbers for my work dial-in, as
we don't have the lines in a hunt group.
Xisp is available from Sunsite and mirrors. It's also available as an
RPM. See the lsm at ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/system/network/serial
