I'm embarrassed to say that I cannot recall how to set up a new dial-up 
connection.  I've been using the same one set up for several years and that 
ISP is going out of business, so I've signed up for a new dial-up ISP, but 
can't remember how to set things up so I can dial into either one. 

How do I set things up so I can dial into either my old ISP or my new ISP? 

FWIW: I have the following entries in my home/Desktop entry for connecting 
to the Internet ... (none of which I understand ;)) Some of which I assume 
are superfluous (those with nothing following the "=" ... )  I'm guessing 
that the extra "Name" entries are useless and could be deleted, right?

Perhaps this is all I need:

Here's the current content of /usr/bin/kdesktop-network 
#!/bin/sh
if [ -e /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/net_cnx_pg ] ; then
        exec /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/net_cnx_pg ;
else exec /usr/sbin/draknet

Here's the current content of /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/cat net_cnx_pg
#!/bin/bash
if [ -n "$DISPLAY" ]; then
if [ -e /usr/bin/kppp ]; then
/usr/bin/kppp &
else
/usr/sbin/net_monitor --connect
fi
else
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/net_cnx_up
fi
