I tried copying this file verbatim to mine and replacing the username. I
then ran ppp-go and it produced the message:

Sorry - this system lacks PPP kernel support

What is it talking about?? When the kernel boots it shows messages
relating to PPP support. Which should I believe. Also, what command can I
use to retrieve the text that goes by when it boots. I would like it for
this and other purposes.
