>Description:
ppp fails to start at boot time because ldconfig startup hasn't occured, I've added ldconfig to the requirements in the ppp startup script
>How-To-Repeat:
configure ppp.conf to ddial so it tries to load automatically at startup
>Fix:
add ldconfig to the requirements line of /etc/rc.d/ppp

I've attached this rediculously small patch file
