Edit the file /etc/sysconfig/network and change the GATEWAYDEV=eth0 to
GATEWAYDEV= (blank -- no entry). This will allow the kppp to set ppp as
the default route. Then you won't have to do the /sbin/route del default at
all. You can also change the name of your machine by editing the HOSTNAME=
in the same file (/etc/sysconfig/network).
