Is PPP needed for ISDN?

[Remo.Badii@psi.ch (Remo Badii)]

Dear Debs,

1) is PPP support needed for ISDN (which uses, as the documentation says,
   syncPPP instead)?
   At the moment, I have PPP as a module in the kernel and I am about to
   try an ISDN connection.

2) Is VJ compression advisable/irrelevant/dangerous? There are warnings 
   against VJ in some ISDN-related scripts which I found in the WWW:
   if it is indeed not advisable, what is the purpose for this option in 
   the kernel configuration?

Thank you,
Remo
