Ruth: You can activate these commands every time you boot. In the
directory /etc/rc.d/ look for a file named 'rc.local'. While as root,
edit the file with your favorite text editor (for example, you can use
'kdesu kwrite' for that), put the three commands there before the
'exit' instruction, save, and reboot.
Then you should be able to use without problems (I hope) KPPP. Tell me
how it does.
