This looks like what I need...  On another note, what's the 'right' way to
mesh diald with the current ppp from hamm?  I was thinking that I'd use
the diald connect script to bring the link up, /usr/bin/poff to bring it
down.  Is there a way to have diald pass the 'noauth' option to pppd
without changing the /etc/ppp/options file (which the file warns against)?
I suppose the best way is to have diald call /usr/bin/pon as well, but
this seems to require some assembly.
