Thanks. That's good to know.

My system is already updated and there's no newer NetworkManager. In 
updates-testing I only see an update to NetworkManager-openvpn.

Unfortunately The ifcfg-ppp0 script you refer to does not exist on my 
system. The only ones I have on my laptop are:

[root at localhost ~]# locate ifcfg-
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-lo
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-wlan0
/usr/lib64/NetworkManager/libnm-settings-plugin-ifcfg-fedora.so
/usr/share/doc/irda-utils-0.9.18/ifcfg-irlan0

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Patrick
