correction to disconnect ADSL



I discovered why the name of the pppd session kept incrementing each time I
disconnected and re-connected. Although no damage was done, I know know how to
disconnnect properly so here it is.

ps -A (to see all process)
kill X (where X is the process ID of pptp)
kill Y (where Y is the process ID of pppd)

My previous suggestion of    **ifconfig ppp0 down**    disabled the connection
but didn't kill the session so at the next connection, a new pppd session (named
ppp1, or ppp2, etc) was created.
