PROBLEM: After installing the optional sysadmsh from the SCO OpenServer
Release 5.0.4 CD-ROM, I start sysadmsh as root and go to:
System->Configure->Menus->User
I choose either Add or Edit, fill in the form with Menu option
title, and command, and save it. The resulting menu entry is
completely blank. If I copy a .sysadmshmenu file from a SCO UNIX
System V/386 Version 4.2 system, it works fine, but if I attempt
to add or edit a menu item, the item gets blanked out.

PROBLEM: A manual bringup outgoing PPP link is set up according to the
instructions given in ta109485, "How to manually configure SCO
PPP for incoming/outgoing connections." When pppattach is used
to bring up the link, it dials, connects, logs in, and then
immediately disconnects. Or, it stays connected but is not able
to communicate with other systems on the Internet. I can connect
to my modem and then dial out and log in without getting
disconnected, so this is not a modem or UUCP problem.
How can my system's default route be automatically updated when
a manual bringup outgoing PPP link (non-Morning Star PPP) uses
dynamically assigned IP addresses?
