[ale] ISP Dialing (Thanks)

[Michael B Golden]

	Actually, I am using Slackware, and it appears to have the
pppconfig program. I ran it, but cannot test it until my dad's computer
is repaired (I use it to connect) Thanks to all that replied on this
matter. It says that to connect I need to type ppp-go.
