Serial Port 0 - Can you help?

[Dave Bacon <dbacon@mail.owls.lib.wi.us>]

I have referenced all of my Linux books on this one and still can't find
a solution.  So I am hoping you can help me.  I need to find a way to
prevent Linux from bringing serial line 0 up after a reboot.  The
ifconfig utility shows serial line 0 (sl0) as a PPP port set to an IP
Address of 192.168.0.1.  For some reason, I can't use eth0 to connect to
the Internet until I run "ifconfig sl0 down".  Thanks in advance for any
ideas or suggestions you can send my way.
