Then you can open a connection by pon <profile> and close it by poff <profile>. Regarding your dboot-problem - you do not need the password since the superuser (under which the program is run) can mutate to every user he wants to. Just use dboot tty1 lance /bin/sh --login to get a shell on tty1. cu Torsten
