Run pppconfig as root and follow the instructions. Then use 'pon' to start
the connection and 'poff' to stop it. If you need a pointy-clicky
interface install gpppon.
You should have been given an opportunity to run pppconfig during the
installation.

It is kppp not KPPP and you may have forgotten to install it..
Try

for another way. |

Well if it says executable not found there must be a reason. |
How are you trying to use it?
Did you click on an Icon or select from a menu or did you type kppp in an xterm?
Maybe we can take it from there.
